About this map

Garden Prairie defines the open, agricultural character of this mid-century Brown County landscape, where the township boundaries of Gem, West Hanson, and Rondelle meet. The map reveals a transition in rural education, documenting active sites like Hanson Sch and School No 5 alongside others marked as School No 1 (Abandoned) and School No 4 (Abandoned). These notations provide a specific record of the consolidation and shifting settlement patterns on the South Dakota plains during the early 1950s.
