The Great Northern railroad corridor defines the development of this Grand Forks County landscape, connecting the prairie settlements of Arvilla, Emerado, and Ojata. Surveyed in the mid-1930s, the map reveals a highly organized rural society structured around township lines and local education, evidenced by the numerous numbered schools and family-named institutions like Cooper Sch and Gilbert Sch. The drainage of the Red River Valley is clearly visible through the winding course of the Turtle River and the expansive Kelly Slough in the northeast.
