1972 Map of Lawton
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The prairie landscape of Ramsey County and Walsh County is defined here by the small community of Lawton, situated along the Burlington Northern railroad line. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a highly organized township system divided into named sections like Shepherd, Newland, and Lillehoff. The local infrastructure is focused around the town center, featuring a Townhall and several benchmarks that anchored the region's early topographical studies. Outside of the settlement, the terrain is dotted with numerous small depressions and water bodies characteristic of this glacial plain, alongside several Gravel Pits that suggest local industry. This document provides a clear view of the rural township layout and the transportation corridor that sustained these North Dakota farming communities during the mid-20th century.
