1965 Map of Willow

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad forms a clear north-south spine through this mid-1960s landscape, connecting the small communities of Rolla and Willow. The map highlights a rural region where small settlements like Lono and Brush Creek are defined by their proximity to local watercourses like L'Eau Frais Cr and West Fork Tulip Creek. A distinct network of family-named roads, including Phillips Cemetery Road, Brashears Road, and Huskey Road, indicates a deeply rooted local community. Genealogists will find several burial grounds such as Gray Cem, Lono Cem, and Phillips Cem well-documented. The terrain is characterized by gradual elevation changes like Locust Hill and the Flat Pine area, with the eastern border marked by the waters of Cox Creek Lake. Industrial activity is noted through scattered Gravel Pits concentrated near the rail line.
