1947 Map of Turtle Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
Turtle Lake serves as the focal point of this McLean County survey, which reveals a landscape defined by its numerous glacial prairie potholes and terminal moraines. The settlement is positioned along the Northern Pacific railroad line, surrounded by a dense network of local township schools such as Greatstone Sch No 2 and Strawberry Lake Sch No 3. These school districts, often named for nearby water bodies like Strawberry Lake or Crooked Lake, reflect the rural social organization of the mid-1940s before the consolidation of many one-room schoolhouses.
