1968 Map of Hannover NE

About this map

Fort Clark Historic Site stands at the Missouri River's edge in this 1968 study, later updated with 1977 aerial revisions. This corner of the Dakotas captures a landscape in transition, where the historical footprint of Fort Clark meets the industrial expansion of the late 20th century. The Burlington Northern line tracks the river valley, serving a region defined by agricultural plots and significant extraction activities. Evidence of the area's geological utility is seen in the Strip Mine and multiple Gravel Pits concentrated near Square Butte Creek. Local lineage is preserved through the Bagley Cem and St Pauls Cem, providing touchpoints for genealogical research. The northern boundary between Mercer and Oliver Counties bisects the upland terrain, including landmarks like Square Butte and the settlement of Alderin.
