About this map

Antelope Creek and its many branches define the drainage of this prairie landscape west of Hazen in Mercer County. The land is organized by a systematic grid of section-line roads, including County Hwy-26 and County Rd-19, which link the isolated farmsteads of the region. The meandering Knife River cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, joined by smaller tributaries like Otter Creek and Brady Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds documented here, notably Wolfe Cemetery in the north and the adjacent Saint Martins Cemetery and Saint Mathews Cemetery further east. The settlement of Truax remains a distinct point of interest in the northeast, while the impoundment at Schramm Dam serves as a significant hydrological landmark. The map details the residential transition on the outskirts of neighboring Beulah, showing the development of streets like Arikara Dr and Elbowoods Dr as they extend into the agricultural landscape.
