2017 Map of Kenel

About this map

Kenel sits atop the dissected plateau overlooking the Missouri River valley, now dominated by the expansive waters of Lake Oahe. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of drainage ravines, including Blackhawk Cr and Mad Bear Cr, which carve through the high ground of Corson County. For genealogists and local historians, the area is defined by its parish landmarks and burial grounds, such as the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Cem, Saint Thomas Cem, and Saint Lukes Cem. This 2017 edition records the modern road network, including Riverside Rd and Old Kenel Rd, providing a clear view of the interface between the rolling upland topography and the stabilized shoreline of the reservoir.
