2015 Map of Parker

About this map

Parker serves as the primary hub of this eastern South Dakota landscape, situated at the confluence of the West Fork Vermillion River and its various tributaries. The town's grid is well-defined by streets such as Chicago St, Kimball St, and W Sanborn St, reflecting a established rural center. To the northwest, the smaller settlement of Monroe sits near the rise of the Coteau des Prairies, a prominent glacial upland that shapes the drainage patterns of the region. The map highlights several local landmarks important to family historians, including Saint Christina Cem, Rose Hill Cem, and Greenwood Cem. The land between the settlements is partitioned by a precise section-line road network, featuring names like Thunder Valley Ave, which indicates the agricultural character and territorial organization of Turner County in the early 21st century.
