1950 Map of Bantry NW

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

McHenry County land patterns are clearly visible in this mid-century survey, which reveals the rural school network that once served the townships of Layton, Bantry, Gilmore, and Wagar. The landscape is dominated by small prairie potholes and marshy depressions, including the prominent Goose Lake and the meandering course of Cut Bank Creek in the northwest. Local education and community life centered on sites like Johnson School, Norenberg School, and Medicine Lodge School No 4, while a solitary Cem and scattered Windmill landmarks indicate the sparse, agricultural nature of the region. This 1950 edition captures the area before modern consolidated school systems and altered farming practices reshaped the North Dakota plains.
