About this map

The Great Northern railway cuts diagonally through this Central North Dakota landscape, anchoring the prairie settlements of Brantford and Grace City during the mid-1940s. The region is defined by a dense network of local township schools such as Smith Sch No 1 and Columbia Sch, illustrating the dispersed but organized rural education system of the era. The terrain transitions from the high ground of Tiffany and Pleasant Prairie down to the meandering James River valley in the south, where water features like Blue Cloud Lake and Rusten Slough punctuate the glacial till. Genealogical interest is concentrated at sites like Kvernes Ch and the Grace City Cem, while the small station at Juanita marks the rail line’s eastward path toward the Foster County border.
