1919 Map of Eldred

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

The Red River of the North defines the border between North Dakota and Minnesota, its winding course separating the townships of Americus, Stavanger, and Ervin from their eastern neighbors. Compiled by the Corps of Engineers at the end of the Great War, this survey highlights an agricultural landscape organized around the Great Northern railroad line. Industrial infrastructure is prominent in the small settlements, specifically the Eldred N.E. tall Elevator and Climax tall Elevator, which served as critical collection points for local grain. The map reveals a dense network of drainage ditches and coulees, such as Buffalo Coulee, engineered to manage the flat terrain of the Red River Valley. Small rural hubs like Belmont, Whynot, and Neby are shown alongside numerous district schools, reflecting the early 20th-century settlement pattern before the consolidation of rural communities.
