2017 Map of Feinstein Lake

About this map

The border of Campbell and McPherson Counties divides this pocket of the South Dakota prairie, where small family-named sites reflect the area's rural heritage. Small prairie lakes and wetlands, most notably Feinstein Lake and Heupel Lake, dot the landscape between the surveyed grid lines of the Public Land Survey System. The map highlights specific genealogical landmarks, including the Eberhardt Family Cem and the Neudorf Lutheran Cem, alongside the Neudorf Cem further north. These small, private burial grounds are situated along remote local routes like 322nd Ave and 118th St, connected by the more prominent Co Hwy 12. The distribution of these family-named features suggests a legacy of homesteading and close-knit rural communities in this high plains region.
