2017 Map of Gary

About this map

The settlement of Gary straddles the state line, positioned where the high ground of the Coteau des Prairies meets the drainages of the W Br Lac qui Parle River. This map shows the community at a crossroads of four counties and two states, with South Dakota’s Deuel County to the west and Minnesota’s Lac qui Parle and Yellow Medicine Counties to the east. The town site is surrounded by significant local landmarks for genealogists, including Grandview Cem and Calvary Cem just north and west of the main residential streets. The landscape is defined by its water system, where small tributaries like Cobb Cr, Florida Cr, and Monighan Cr carve through the agricultural sections. The survey details the grid of county roads and named streets like Main Ave and Herrick St, illustrating the enduring layout of this border community.
