2012 Map of Daly Corners

About this map

Houghton Cem stands near the northern boundary of this Brown County landscape, a vital point for those tracing family history in the area around Daly Corners. The terrain is strictly partitioned by a grid of rural roads, including 399th Ave and 401st Ave, reflecting the systematic land division typical of the Dakotas. Water management is a central theme of this 2012 survey, with the Columbia Road Reservoir bordering the northwest and the engineered path of the Crow Creek Drainage Ditch cutting diagonally across the southeastern corner. This drainage network, including the various section roads like 113th St and 121st St, illustrates the long-standing efforts to stabilize and utilize this agricultural prairie for consistent production.
