1971 Map of Bloomfield

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Spink and Beadle County line divides this 1970s landscape of the Missouri River Basin, where communal settlements and rural outposts are connected by a network of sectional roads. The northern portion is characterized by Hillside Colony, situated near the winding course of Foster Creek as it flows through Capitola and Harrison townships. The map records several vital community centers, including La Delle and the eponymous Bloomfield, as well as cultural landmarks like Emmanuel Ch and the Hutterthal Ch near the southern border. This period of development shows a reliance on local resources, evidenced by multiple Gravel Pits and a Gaging Station monitoring local waterways, providing a precise look at the agricultural and social organization of east-central South Dakota before modern consolidation.
