1984 Map of Faith

About this map

Faith and its surrounding prairie landscapes in the mid-1980s are defined by the convergence of ranching trails and the many branches of the Moreau River. This region, where Perkins and Harding counties meet, is dotted with isolated buttes that served as landmarks for generations, such as Chimney Butte and Rabbit Butte. The map reveals a network of small settlements and ranching hubs like Bixby, Maurine, and Zeona, many of which were established during the homesteading era.
