About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts a wide path through this portion of Rosebud and Custer counties, defining the local geography and transportation corridors. Along its northern banks, the small settlement of Sheffield sits near the mouth of Whitetail Cr, while to the south, the community of Hathaway serves as a central point for the surrounding ranching country. The map reveals a landscape deeply connected to its pioneers and rugged environment, evidenced by evocative place names like Graveyard Cr and the nearby Graveyard Creek Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Hathaway Cem south of the main river channel, accessible via Bennett Ln. The terrain is marked by numerous seasonal drainages such as Iron Jaw Cr and Bull Creek, which feed into the primary river valley. Notable local thoroughfares, including Tombstone Rd and Hathaway Ranch Ln, provide insight into the rural infrastructure and land use patterns of this Montana river valley during the early 21st century.
