1958 Map of Britton 4 SW

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The glaciated plains of the Marshall and Day County border are defined by a complex network of wetlands and prairie potholes in this late-1950s survey. This landscape was mapped as part of a Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, revealing a rural community structured around the township sections of Hickman, Sisseton, Homer, Independence, and Lynn. The map provides a detailed look at the infrastructure of the time, where local education was still decentralized across numerous numbered schoolhouses, such as School No 3 and School No 226. Religious and communal life centers on Highlands Ch and Falnes Ch, while the presence of the Jandahl Sch and family-named burial grounds like Hanson Cem offer clear evidence of the area's established homesteading history.
