1950 Map of Oberon
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
Sheyenne River winds through the heart of this North Dakota landscape, marking a transition between the elevated terrain of Rocky Mountain and the water-streaked plains to the north. The survey documents a dense network of early rural education and faith, featuring numerous localized schoolhouses like Lakeview Sch No 1 and Plainview Sch No 2, alongside community anchors such as St Jerome Ch and Grandfield Ch. The town of Oberon serves as a central hub along the Northern Pacific railroad, which facilitated the local economy of gravel extraction and agriculture during the mid-century. Historical boundary lines, including the Old Indian Boundary and the Old Military Res Bdy, remain etched into the township grid, providing a clear record of nineteenth-century land divisions and tribal territories that persisted into the 1950s mapping.
