About this map

Painted Woods Creek meanders across the southern portion of this McLean County landscape, defined by a rural network of family-run school districts and small country congregations. Based on surveys from 1958 and 1961 with 1980 updates, the map documents a stable agricultural community where local life centered around rural schoolhouses like Koenig Sch No 4 and Park Sch No 3. These numbered schools, along with Iowa Sch No 2 and Iowa Sch No 3, illustrate the historical density of the rural education system before mid-century consolidation. The presence of Zion Cem and Fairview Ch suggests the early anchors of the township's social and religious life. A Gaging Station and a Gravel Pit indicate the modest industrial and infrastructure footprints of the Missouri River Basin development program during this era.
