About this map

Mayfield and the surrounding Yankton County township are defined by a grid of section roads and the winding path of the James River. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey map documents the agricultural landscape of southeastern South Dakota, where several drainage systems converge. Smoky Run, Clay Cr, and Mud Cr carve subtle valleys through the prairie, feeding into the larger river system that dominates the western edge of the quadrangle.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Walshtown Cem centrally located near the junction of 300th St and 444th Ave. In the eastern portion of the map, the recreation area around Marindahl Lake offers a break from the expansive farm fields. The map provides a precise look at the township’s rural infrastructure, from the named avenues and streets to the intricate topography that guides the region's hydrology.
