1973 Map of Fordham Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Clark Colony and Huron Colony define the settlement pattern of this rural landscape along the border of Spink and Clark Counties. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map illustrates a highly organized agricultural and water-management system focused on Foster Creek. Significant infrastructure includes Logan Dam and Fordham Dam, which control water flow across the prairie. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Fordham State Public Shooting Area, a major public land designation highlighting the region's importance for wildlife and recreation. Local civic life is marked by the presence of a rural Townhall and the Logan Cem, while economic activity is indicated by a Gravel Pit and scattered wells. The township boundaries of Richfield, Logan, Capitola, and Fordham provide the underlying administrative structure for these dispersed communities.
