About this map

Faulkton serves as a vital rail junction on this 1950s prairie landscape, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific crosses the Chicago and North Western line. This intersection defines the local economy, supported by the Gravel Pits found south of the South Fork Snake Creek. The surrounding townships of Pulaski, Myron, Tamworth, and Lafoon are dotted with the essential infrastructure of rural South Dakota life, including the Lafoon Sch, Reed Sch, and Melius Sch. The presence of the Faulkton Landing Field and a central Water Tank highlights the town's role as a regional hub. Genealogists may find particular value in the location of the Faulkton Cem, situated at the edge of the settlement as it appeared just after the midpoint of the twentieth century.
