2014 Map of Alfred

About this map

The settlement of Alfred sits near the northeastern corner of this 2014 survey, a small cluster of development in an area defined by the glacial prairie pothole topography of the Missouri Plateau. This landscape is marked by numerous unnamed wetlands and depressions alongside larger water bodies like Arnies Lake. The rural character of the region is emphasized by its strict section-line road grid, where routes such as 64th Ave SE and 61st St SE segment the land into large agricultural tracts. An important point for genealogists and local historians is the Postal Cem, located in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. The boundary between Logan Co and LaMoure Co runs vertically through the eastern half of the map, while Cottonwood Cr winds through the southern terrain, providing one of the few natural drainage features in this lake-dotted prairie.
