About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the industrial and social backbone for this mid-1960s portrait of Colorado and Fayette Counties. The town of Weimar dominates the eastern portion of the sheet, showing a concentrated grid of streets, St Michaels Sch, and an Athletic Field. To the west and south, the landscape opens into a patchwork of rural farmsteads and creek drainages, including the winding East Navidad River and Middle Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the outlying settlements and family-named landmarks. The village of Dubina is anchored by St Cyril Ch and sits near the banks of the river, while the New Bielau Community Center and Trinity Ch appear in the southern reaches. Numerous small burial grounds, such as Boer Cem and Clear Creek Cem, are preserved across the quadrangle, alongside evidence of local industry like the Gravel Pit operations south of the rail line.
