1970 Map of Marion NE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Glacial depressions and prairie wetlands define this landscape along the border of Barnes and La Moure counties. The survey depicts a predominantly rural expanse organized into historic townships like Greenland, Rosebud, and S V E A, reflecting the area's agricultural settlement patterns. In the southern portion of the sheet, the Burlington Northern railroad tracks cross the flatlands near Sheridan and Prairie, illustrating the vital transportation corridor for North Dakota grain. Evidence of the local community's heritage is found at the Swedish Cem and Bethlehem Cem, while the presence of a Gravel Pit indicates small-scale resource extraction. Large water bodies such as Meadow Lake break up the section lines, highlighting the importance of natural drainage in this northern plains environment during the early 1970s.
