2021 Map of Fordham Dam

About this map

Clark Colony and Fordham Colony anchor this agricultural landscape in eastern South Dakota, where the prairie begins its ascent onto the Coteau des Prairies. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Foster Cr, which feeds into the reservoir created by Fordham Dam. This map reveals a highly structured grid of section lines and county roads, such as 411th Ave and Co Rd 18, which divide the land into expansive farm plots. The presence of Logan Cem near the Spink and Clark County line provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing local families in this rural township. The transition from the lower plains to the distinct upland plateau of the Coteau is the primary geographic feature of the region, influencing the drainage patterns and settlement locations within the township boundaries.
