1959 Map of Norman

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Sheyenne River snakes in tight, dense oxbows through the heart of this Red River Valley landscape, defining the character of the borderlands between Cass and Richland Counties. In the late 1950s, this area remained primarily agricultural, anchored by the small settlement of Norman and a network of rural schoolhouses such as School No 19 and School No 5. The northern portion of the map is intersected by the Northern Pacific railroad, which cuts a straight line through the townships of Warren and Stanley. For those tracing family ties to the region, the map identifies local burial grounds including Norman Cem and Dokken Cem, providing essential geographic context for mid-century rural North Dakota life before the further consolidation of these small prairie communities.
