1967 Map of Mayville South

About this map

Portland and Mayville anchor the northern edge of this Red River Valley landscape, where the meandering Goose River breaks the grid of agricultural townships. The town of Mayville is marked by its proximity to Island Park and the municipal Cem, with the Great Northern railway cutting a diagonal path southeast toward the horizon. This period of the mid-1960s shows a region deeply managed by an extensive hydrological network, including the Mayville Drain No 9, Miller Drain No 29, and Blanchard Drain No 23.
