1969 Map of Hazen NE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The agrarian landscape of Mercer County is defined by a sparse but deeply rooted network of small family and community landmarks as recorded in 1969. The topography is etched by the drainage of Coal Creek and Raymond Creek, where the rolling plains are dotted with several small cemeteries that speak to the early settlement history of the region. Distinctive features like the Tschaekofske Cem and St Peters Cem are prominent on the high ground, while the Trinity Ch serves as a lone spiritual landmark in the northeastern portion of the quadrangle. Closer to the southern drainage patterns, the St Johns Cem, St Jacobs Cem, and Goetz Cem cluster near the creek beds, indicating the historically preferred locations for burial sites and homesteads within this section of the Great Plains. The map provides a precise view of the rural section lines and fence boundaries established by the State of North Dakota Water Commission at a time when traditional farming patterns remained largely unchanged.
