1955 Map of Rangeley NE

About this map

Smoky Lake Sch No 1 and Smoky Lake Sch No 2 anchor this rural McHenry County landscape, reflecting the distributed nature of mid-century education across North Dakota's central prairies. The terrain is defined by a dense network of kettle ponds and marshes, notably the large expanse of Smoky Lake in the east and Fresh Water Lake in the northwest. These water bodies are surrounded by distinct topographic features such as Bald Butte, providing a detailed look at the glacial geology of the region. The map was developed as part of a Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, documenting the drainage patterns of the Gorman area. Isolated rural schoolhouses like those near Duckshire Lake offer specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists researching the families that once populated these survey sections.
