1964 Map of Lake Andes NW

About this map

Geddes stands at the northern edge of this Missouri River Basin survey, serving as a focal point for a landscape defined by its reservation history and water management. The survey documents the complex geography of the Yankton Indian Reservation Boundary and the Jackson Reservation Boundary, which intersect with older transit corridors like the Old Fort Randall Road and the Old Military Road. In the south, the expansion of the Missouri River into Lake Francis Case has reshaped the terrain, creating the Pease Creek Recreation Area and Spring Creek Recreation Area. Notable local landmarks include St Anns Cem, Pleasant Lawn Cem, and the small inland Lake Geddes, while the Chicago Military and St Paul and Pacific rail line cuts across the northeastern corner past Goose Lake.
