1994 Map of Devils Lake

About this map

Devils Lake serves as the focal point for this mid-1990s survey, illustrating the complex geography where the city meets the water's edge. The map highlights a significant institutional presence in the community, featuring the State School for Deaf, St Josephs Sch, and Minnie H Sch alongside the Mercy Hosp complex. These public and private anchors are situated near the historic Devils Lake Cem and the G A R Cem, providing essential details for those researching the town's social and genealogical history. To the south, the landscape transitions into the Fort Totten Indian Reservation boundary, where the Shelvers Grove State Rec Area and the National Waterfowl Production Area indicate a shift toward conservation and recreation. An Old Railroad Grade cutting across the terrain offers a tangible trace of former transportation routes that once linked these northern prairie settlements.
