1949 Map of Cathay SE

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Fairville and Woodward townships define this central North Dakota prairie landscape, characterized by the winding path of Rocky Run and Pipestem Creek. The map documents a sparse but vital community network established during the mid-20th century, anchored by the settlement of Lemert and the Soo Line railroad which cuts diagonally across the southern sections. Local heritage is deeply rooted in the rural infrastructure, evidenced by the Norwegian Lutheran Cem and Stavanger Ch located in the northwest. These cultural landmarks, alongside School No 3, provide a clear picture of the early social organization of Wells County before more modern agricultural shifts occurred. The topography is marked by numerous small depressions and drainage patterns typical of this region, with a local Gravel Pit indicating the small-scale extractive industry of the era.
