About this map

The town of Reeder serves as the focal point of this 1969 survey, situated along the tracks of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad. The layout of the settlement is documented in detail, showing a grid of streets punctuated by a prominent Water Tank and the municipal infrastructure of the Sewage Disposal Ponds to the south. The surrounding landscape is characterized by the drainage of Buffalo Creek and Lightning Creek, which meander through the prairie terrain.

Industrial and local landmarks include the Reeder Landing Field and several scattered Gravel Pits, indicating the importance of regional transport and material extraction. Genealogy researchers will find the Rose Hill Cem south of the town center. The map also delineates the county line between Bowman Co and Adams Co, providing a clear view of the jurisdictional boundaries in this section of the state near the Lemmon and Reeder townships.
