About this map

Firesteel Creek meanders through this portion of the South Dakota prairie, defining a landscape of low drainage draws and scattered pioneer burial grounds. The map reveals the rural infrastructure of Blaine Township and the surrounding area at the Jerauld and Aurora county line, where the local economy is etched into the earth through features like Fraser Dam. This 2017 edition serves as a detailed record of the township's section lines and persistent family landmarks, including several small cemeteries that speak to the area's genealogical history. Researchers can find Solberg Cem, German Cem, Charity Cem, and Union Cem distributed across the sections, while natural features like Piersons Draw Motts Draw and Donegans Draw provide specific context for the region's topography and drainage patterns.
