About this map

Parshall serves as the primary hub of this Mountrail County landscape, situated within the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation Boundary. The town is well-developed for the era, featuring a grid of residential and commercial streets, a Trailer Park, and local recreation facilities such as the Golf Course. Just outside the town limits, Hankins Field and the Parshall Cem provide clear landmarks for genealogical and historical research.

The surrounding terrain is defined by the drainage of Shell Creek and its East Fork, cutting through the agricultural townships of Fertile and Banner. Evidence of local industry is scattered across the prairie in numerous labeled Gravel Pits, while the presence of a Radio Tower and Water Tank highlight the community's mid-century infrastructure. The map also documents the municipal Sew Disp Ponds near the creek fork, offering a precise look at the town's footprint before later development.
