2021 Map of Miller

About this map

The prairie landscape of Hand County is defined by the twin settlements of Miller and St. Lawrence along the central rail and road corridor. As the county seat, Miller serves as the primary hub, anchored by the Hand County Courthouse and supported by infrastructure like the Miller Municipal Airport to the east. The surrounding township lines, including t112n r68w and t113n r67w, partition a grid of section roads that navigate the meandering courses of Ree Cr, Turtle Cr, and Little Turtle Cr. These waterways create natural variations in the otherwise orderly agricultural layout. Local genealogy is well-represented through several established burial grounds, including the GAR Cem, Saint Anns Cem, and Saint Lawrence Cem located just outside the village limits. This survey illustrates a modern rural community where long-established civic centers remain closely integrated with the hydrology and land divisions of the South Dakota plains.
