About this map

Tiffany Flats and the Columbia region define the open landscape of Eddy County in this mid-century survey, conducted as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin. The northern boundary of the map includes a portion of the Devils Lake Ind Res along the winding path of the Sheyenne River. The settlement pattern is typical of the era's rural school districts, with localized landmarks such as School No 3 and School No 1 serving the surrounding agricultural sections. The drainage of the land is visible through features like Robinson Coulee, which connects the prairie to more significant water bodies like Lake Washington and Cherry Lake on the eastern edge. A centrally located Town Hall serves as a reminder of the township's civic structure during this post-war period of Missouri River Basin development.
