About this map

Westreville serves as a focal point in this agricultural landscape of southeastern South Dakota, situated near the intersection of 308th St and Bluff Rd. The area is characterized by a dense distribution of rural burial grounds, reflecting the diverse denominational and ethnic heritage of Clay County's early settlers. Prominent sites include Saint Patricks Cem, Bethel Baptist Cem, and Mortvedt Cem, alongside the Union Cem and New Lodi Cem.

The terrain transitions from the higher elevations of Cabbage Flat and the depressions of Norwegian Gulch down toward the southern drainage systems. Water management is evident through the path of the Clay Cr Ditch, while natural features like Spring Cr and Dillon Spring punctuate the grid of section roads. This survey illustrates the enduring township-and-range framework that defines the region's movement and land use.
