About this map

The Lower Souris National Wildlife Refuge dominates the landscape of Bottineau County in this 1950 survey, following the winding course of the Lower Souris River. This area of North Dakota exhibits a highly organized section-line grid system, typical of the Missouri River Basin development era. The map records the rural social structure of the mid-century, specifically marking local centers of education such as School No 2, School No 3, and School No 4. The terrain is divided into distinct civil townships including Sergius, Eidsvold, Starbuck, Kane, and Brandon, each reflecting the settlement patterns of the Northern Plains. While the waterway and its associated marshlands provide a natural corridor, the presence of a Gravel Pit near the river suggests the localized extraction industries that supported regional infrastructure and road building during this period.
