1982 Map of Medberry

About this map

Cottonwood Creek meanders through this portion of LaMoure County, defining a prairie landscape marked by small settlements and the heavy infrastructure of the Burlington Northern railroad. The map highlights the localized township organization of Russell, Roscoe, and Henrietta, reflecting the grid-based settlement patterns of the North Dakota plains. Small communities like Medberry and Russell serve as focal points in a region primarily dedicated to agriculture and resource extraction, as evidenced by several Gravel Pits scattered near the creek. The presence of a Townhall in the northwest corner suggests a central site for local civic life and governance in this rural township at the start of the 1980s.
