Flown by the U.S. Geological Survey between 1937 and 1989, the Aerial Photo Single Frames collection is the definitive mid-century view of the land: fields, roads and rivers as the camera saw them. The Survey holds 9,410 frames inside the rectangle that bounds this county; the 48 frames below were taken over the county itself, chosen across the decades of flights (at most four a year from that rectangle), so one flight cannot crowd out the rest. The full set is free to browse and download at EarthExplorer under the dataset Aerial Photo Single Frames.

The thermometers that kept this county's weather, and the gages that measured the flow of its streams, as the federal records hold them. The extremes below are measured values from those records, not estimates.

Who lived here in 1950, one enumeration district at a time, as the Census Bureau described each district. Each row opens its official National Archives result, with Population Schedules and ED Maps available there.

Every wildfire the federal occurrence database records inside this county: 1,764 of them, burning about 918,039 acres. 1,161 started naturally and 36 were recorded as arson. Each settlement page carries the fires within five miles of it.

The five largest, by the area the report gives. Two of them were set deliberately.

Every settlement page carries the fires within five miles of it - see the settlement index below.

The NOAA Storm Events Database holds 75 reports for this county, causing no deaths, no injuries and about $1,255,130 in recorded property damage. Each settlement page carries the reports that name it.

The most serious of them, by death, then injury, then recorded damage. The accounts are quoted exactly as the forecast office filed them.

The Survey's mineral resources record lists 670 workings inside this county. 115 still produce and 555 are closed or unrecorded. Each settlement page carries the workings within five miles of it.

The least common of them first, because a county's hundredth gravel pit says nothing its first ten did not.
