2012 Map of Haucks Lake

About this map

Emanuel Creek and its tributary, Little Emanuel Creek, meander across this Bon Homme County landscape, defining the rural character of the region. The map preserves the locations of several significant local landmarks, including the Emanuel Creek Baptisten Kirche Cem and Immanuel Cemetery, which offer valuable data for genealogical research in this part of South Dakota. The topography is dominated by the drainage patterns of these creeks as they flow southward toward the Missouri River valley, with Haucks Lake and its namesake Haucks Lane serving as a distinct geographic anchor in the southern portion of the quadrangle. A strict section-line road grid, including 410th Avenue and 300th Street, organizes the farmland and connects the scattered homesteads that comprise this agricultural community.
