1967 Map of Pine Ridge SW

About this map

Pine Ridge Indian Reservation Boundary stretches across this landscape in the late 1960s, marking the transition from South Dakota into Nebraska. The terrain is defined by the drainage of White Clay Creek in the northeast corner and the winding path of Janis Creek, which flows westward through the central portion of the map. This survey is particularly significant for genealogists and local historians as it identifies the Tashunke-Ko-Ki-Pa-Pi Cem near the northern border, providing a specific geographic point for tribal and family research within Shannon Co. The map also captures the administrative division between Shannon Co, South Dakota, and Sheridan Co, Nebraska, reflecting the intersection of sovereign reservation lands and state jurisdictions in the High Plains.
