1967 Map of Lake Benton NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Ivanhoe serves as the focal point of this Lincoln County landscape, situated where the Chicago and North Western railroad crosses the prairie. This late-1960s survey documents a region defined by agricultural drainage and intensive wildlife conservation efforts, evidenced by a dense network of specialized habitats such as the Suhr State Wildlife Management Area and Chain-O-Sloughs State Wildlife Management Area. The natural hydrology of the Yellow Medicine River and its branches is heavily modified by a system of man-made channels, including Judicial Ditch No 22 and County Ditch No 37. Large water bodies like Shaokatan Lake and Ash Lake anchor the southern half of the quadrangle, while several burial grounds, including Shaokatan Cem and the West Elim Cem, provide valuable landmarks for genealogists tracing the area's rural settlement patterns.
