1957 Map of Tschetter Colony

About this map

Tschetter Colony sits along a dramatic bend of the James River in this mid-century survey of Hutchinson County. The landscape is defined by the prairie's gradual descent toward the river valley, where Wolf Creek and Lonetree Creek drain into the main channel. The map reveals a highly organized rural social structure, evidenced by the regular distribution of country schools and churches that served the agricultural community during this era.
