1964 Map of Dilworth

About this map

The Buffalo River meanders through the fertile landscape of Clay County, defining the borders between the townships of Kragnes, Morken, Moland, and Glyndon. This agricultural region is punctuated by a systematic network of drainage infrastructure, including County Ditch No 35 and County Ditch No 39, which supported the intensive farming of the Red River Valley. The southern portion of the map reveals the urban expansion of Moorhead and Dilworth, where the Burlington Northern railroad lines converge. Significant community landmarks are concentrated near these hubs, such as the Nursing Home and a Trailer Park. Local history is anchored by sites like the Concordia Cem Ch and the Townhall in Moland, reflecting the established rural social structure of the mid-20th century.
