1949 Map of Eckman SE

About this map

Chatfield Prairie and the rugged expanse of Prescott Grilley dominate this post-war landscape in McHenry County, where the topography was meticulously recorded using plane-table methods. This 1949 edition was compiled as part of the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, illustrating a rural community structure defined by township lines and essential local institutions. The presence of School No 1 and School No 2, alongside Our Savior Church, indicates the dispersed but organized settlement pattern of the era. Water resources are marked by the winding paths of Cut Bank Creek and the Deep River, while political boundaries intersect where Bottineau, McHenry, and Renville counties meet. The map captures the region's transition into the mid-century, reflecting a landscape still shaped by early agrarian surveying and localized civic hubs.
