1956 Map of Little Eagle SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Spring Lake and its surrounding prairie landscape define this portion of the Standing Rock Indian Reservation as it was documented in the mid-1950s and updated in the 1970s. The map highlights the sparse distribution of rural community centers across the rolling grasslands of Corson County, characterized by small schools and country churches. Key landmarks for local history include the Good Shepherd Ch and the Meyer Sch, which represent the social anchors of this ranching and agricultural region. Significant terrain features such as Saddle Butte and the drainage of High Bank Creek provide a clear view of the natural hydrology and topography. An interesting detail for genealogists and researchers is the note of the Spring Lake Sch (Abandoned), documenting the decline of small school districts in the area during the late twentieth century.
