1971 Map of Buxton
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The agrarian landscape of Buxton and Cummings is defined by the rigid grid of the Red River Valley, where the Burlington Northern railroad runs parallel to the modern interstate corridor. This 1971 survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local geography, with a significant number of rural burial sites serving as markers of early settlement history. These include East Immanuel Cem, West Immanuel Cem, Reeves Cem, and the Cummings Cem. The drainage of the flat prairie is facilitated by the winding Buffalo Coulee, which cuts across the townships of Buxton, Stavanger, Wold, and Ervin. The map also captures the functional infrastructure of the era, from the Radio Tower and numerous Gravel Pits to the Sewage Disposal Ponds near the northern town site.
