2021 Map of Elkton
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
The borderlands of South Dakota and Minnesota meet along the Coteau des Prairies, a vast plateau that defines the drainage patterns of this agricultural landscape. The city of Elkton serves as the primary hub, showing a grid of streets such as Beaver St and Buffalo St that reflect its early development. To the south, the smaller community of Ward sits near the headwaters of Mud Cr. The area is notably dense with early burial sites, providing a significant resource for genealogists researching families from Saint Marys Cem, Elkton City Cem, or the Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Cem. Multiple waterways including Spring Cr and Flandreau Cr cut through the section lines, illustrating how the natural topography of the Coteau intersects with the rigid township and range system.
