About this map

The town of Harrold serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, where the township lines of t112n r74w and t112n r73w converge in eastern Hughes County. The settlement is defined by its grid of residential streets, including Wyman Ave and 1st St, situated just north of the winding course of the S Fork Medicine Knoll Cr. This modern survey illustrates a transition from established agriculture to regional infrastructure, featuring the Harrold Municipal Airport positioned west of the main town site.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by the presence of Medicine Hill Cem and Saint John Cem, which overlook the creek valley south of the community. To the north, the terrain softens around Walker Lake, a notable water body in an area otherwise dominated by the section-line road network. The map clearly delineates the administrative boundaries where Hughes, Sully, and Hyde counties meet, reflecting the organized land management of the South Dakota plains.
