1950 Map of Manfred NW

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Sheyenne River winds through this Central North Dakota landscape, its course modified by the creation of the Harvey Dam State Wildlife Management Area. This 1950s-era topography shows a rural environment defined by the rectangular grid of section lines across Western, Forward, and Rusland townships. The map reflects a period when one-room schoolhouses and country churches served the agricultural community, with the presence of Whitby Sch No 3, School No 2, and St Peters Ch marking the social hubs of the prairie. In the northeast corner, Egg Lake and the Soo Line railroad provide geographical anchors, while the southern terrain is carved by the namesake Pony Gulch. Local industry is represented by a small Gravel Pit, typical of the region's reliance on local materials for road building.
