1968 Map of Oldham NW

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The glacial prairie landscape of eastern South Dakota is defined here by the headwaters of the East Fork Vermillion River, which meanders through the townships of Mathews, Whitewood, Belleview, and Grafton. This 1968 survey reveals a sparse, rural environment organized along section lines, where the proximity to the Kingsbury and Miner County border shaped local land use and administration. Near the western edge, the Berton Cem stands as a solitary genealogical landmark amidst active land-working sites like the Gravel Pit and Sandpit. The topography is characterized by subtle depressions and low rises, typical of the region's till plains, with fine red dashed lines indicating fence and field boundaries that were visible on aerial photographs during the mid-1960s.
