1968 Map of Bowman-Haley Dam

About this map

Bowman-Haley Reservoir dominates the northwestern corner of this landscape, its creation having altered the flow of the North Fork Grand River as it winds through the plateau. Located directly on the border between North Dakota and South Dakota, the area is characterized by scattered landmarks essential to rural life in the late 1960s. Genealogists will find the Haley Cem and St Isidore Cem positioned across the landscape, while the Vessey Sch and the namesake Vessey Lake anchor the southern portion of the survey. The terrain is marked by distinct geological zones such as Goldfield and Vessey, interspersed with small-scale industrial sites like a Gravel Pit and natural water features including a Flowing Well and Wilson Creek.
