About this map

The Jim River Valley defines the western edge of this mid-century survey, cutting through the prairie landscape of Stutsman County. At the time of this 1948 and 1950 mapping, the region was organized into distinct townships including Kensal, Nogosek, Lyon, Durham, and Ashland. The map reveals a highly structured rural society where small, numbered schoolhouses served as the primary communal nodes for farming families. One can trace the distribution of these essential institutions, such as School No 1, School No 2, and School No 4, across the landscape. The inclusion of St James Cem and Zion Cem provides critical points of interest for genealogists tracing early families in this part of North Dakota. In the south-central portion, Rudolph Lake sits among the glacial depressions characteristic of the prairie pothole region.
