1966 Map of Burdette

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Burdette sits at the heart of this Hand County landscape, a rural community defined by the convergence of North Wolf Creek and Wolf Creek. The prairie is organized by townships including Burdette, Holden, and Wheaton, where the distribution of schools and public buildings reflects the mid-century social structure of South Dakota. Local history is anchored by landmarks like the Sunbeam Ch Townhall and the Townhall near the main settlement, serving as gathering points for the surrounding agricultural population. This mid-1960s study, prepared as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, also identifies the Sunbeam Cem and Burdette Cem, providing essential primary source data for genealogists tracing families in the townships of Carlton, Gilbert, and York. In the south, Turtle Creek winds through the fields, while a small Gravel Pit indicates the local industry supporting the area's unpaved road network.
