About this map

The Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge dominates the northwestern corner of this mid-century survey, protecting the waters of Sand Lake in Brown County. The landscape is defined by the township boundaries of Shelby, Columbia, and Claremont, where a grid of rural roads and drainage infrastructure supports the local agricultural economy. The Chicago and North Western railway cuts diagonally across the northern prairie, providing a critical transport link for the region's farms. Scattered throughout the townships are essential community landmarks, including Knecht Sch, James Sch, and the Houghton Cem. A small settlement at Daly Corners and a remote Windmill further illustrate the sparse but organized settlement pattern of the South Dakota plains during the early 1950s.
