USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad defines the southern corridor of this McHenry County landscape, passing through the small community of Voltaire. This 1948 survey, published decades later, captures a rural economy built around the meandering Souris River and a scattering of glacial lakes, including Lake Hester and Stink Lake. The settlement pattern is anchored by essential local institutions, from the Hjerdal Ch to small rural schoolhouses like Howe Sch and Roach Sch.
