1950 Map of Carrington West

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The prairie landscape of Foster County is defined by the intersection of major rail lines and the winding course of Pipestem Creek. At the time of this 1949 topographic study, the Carrington townsite serves as a regional hub, supported by the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie and the Northern Pacific railroads. The map reveals a highly organized rural grid, where numbered schools like School No 1 and School No 3 served the outlying farming community alongside landmarks like the Town Hall and the Landing Field. To the south and west, the terrain is dotted with small potholes and larger water bodies like Scotts Slough and Russell Lake. Genealogists will find the exact locations of the Carrington Cem and Longview Cem clearly marked among the sections of Longview and Wyard townships.
