1971 Map of Merricourt SE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Whitestone Hill rises as a prominent landmark in this prairie landscape of Dickey County, overlooking the broad expanse of Grand Valley. The map, surveyed in the early 1970s, reveals a rural organization defined by localized civic centers and drainage features like Bristol Gulch and Albion Gulch. Settlement patterns are anchored by modest structures such as the Townhall located near the center of the sheet and a small Cem in the northeast, which alongside the Hamburg township line, provide essential points of reference for genealogists. The southwestern portion is dominated by the marshy edge of Happy Lake and the Lorraine township area, while scattered Gravel Pits indicate local resource extraction during this era. Fine red dashed lines throughout the quadrangle denote field and fence lines as seen from 1967 aerial photography, offering a detailed view of mid-century agricultural land division.
