1970 Map of Leola
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Leola serves as the central hub of this McPherson County landscape, which transitions between the organized township boundaries of Howard and Washington. The town's layout is clearly defined against the surrounding agricultural terrain, which is marked by an extensive Old Railroad Grade that once connected this prairie community to broader markets. Local history is anchored by Our Lady of Perpetual Help Cem and the distinctive Green Mound to the south. The natural drainage of Foot Creek winds through the eastern sections of the map, while modern infrastructure is represented by a Sewage Disposal Pond on the outskirts of town. This 1970 field check documents a period when the physical remnants of the rail era remained prominent features of the rural South Dakota topography.
