1961 Map of Turtle Creek SW

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Missouri River cuts through the southwestern corner of this 1961 survey, defining the boundary between McLean and Oliver counties. This landscape is characterized by the meandering path of Turtle Creek as it winds southward toward its confluence with the larger river system. To the southeast, the Lost Lake National Wildlife Refuge encompasses Lost Lake and several natural Springs, protecting a vital wetland habitat within the prairie. Local education and rural infrastructure are marked by the presence of Koenig Sch No 3 and Satterlund Sch No 2, providing clear points of reference for genealogists tracing family locations in these townships during the early 1960s. The terrain transitions from the river bottomlands to higher ground dotted with Gravel Pits and the drainage of Painted Woods Creek.
