1940 Map of Aylmer

About this map

Antelope Lake sits at the heart of this North Dakota prairie landscape, surrounded by a network of small agricultural townships and rail-connected settlements at the end of the 1930s. The region is defined by two major rail lines: the Great Northern passing through Aylmer and the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie serving Anamoose and Martin. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the era, where one-room schoolhouses like Lakeview Sch No 3 and New German Sch No 1 were still the primary centers for local education. The map illustrates the early 20th-century settlement pattern where family life revolved around the local church and school, visible in landmarks such as Berlin Ch, Hillsdale Ch, and the Martin Cem. The intersection of McHenry, Pierce, Sheridan, and Wells counties highlights the complex administrative boundaries governing these central plains farming communities.
