1968 Map of Akaska NE

About this map

Rieger Creek winds through this portion of Walworth County, carving a subtle drainage pattern across the landscape south of the Selby Corp Bdy. The map captures the agricultural and transportation infrastructure of the late 1960s, featuring the Rabenberg Airport and a prominent Radio Tower that served as local landmarks. The area around the Selby municipal boundary shows the transition from town planning to open range, with Selby Union Cem and Bangor Cem providing essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians tracking early settlement patterns. Along the highway, the Hoffman Roadside Park offers a glimpse into the mid-century travel amenities provided by the State of South Dakota Department of Highways during this era of rural development.
