About this map

Center serves as the focal point of this Oliver County landscape, situated at the intersection of a vast grid of section roads and small watercourses. The town plan is clearly defined by streets such as Lincoln Ave and Hazel Miner Ave, while the surrounding rural township is marked by the meandering paths of Square Butte Creek and Hagel Creek. These waterways provide the primary topographic relief in an area otherwise dominated by high-plains agricultural divisions.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of the Hagerott Cemetery and Saint Martins Cemetery, both located just south of the main settlement. These sites, along with named thoroughfares like Lehmkuhl Street, reflect the German-Russian and European heritage common to the settlement of this region. The map preserves the 2017 configuration of this county seat before any subsequent rural or municipal shifts.
