Fullerton and the surrounding townships of Dickey County appear here in the early 1890s, organized into a strict grid of sections and civil boundaries. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Maple River, which meanders south through Kentner and Van Meter. Transportation and commerce are anchored by two major rail lines: the Minneapolis St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie R.R. passing through Fullerton and Yorktown, and the St. Paul Minneapolis and Manitoba R.R. running across the southern portion of the sheet near Silver Leaf. This survey illustrates the early settlement patterns of the Dakota prairie, where township names like Wright, Porter, and Ada demarcated the land for incoming pioneers and agricultural development.
