1961 Map of Revere

About this map

The Great Northern railroad cuts a diagonal line across the prairie landscape of Griggs County, serving the small settlement of Revere. This early 1960s survey, conducted for the development of the Missouri River Basin, illustrates a rural economy defined by township boundaries like Helena, Dover, and Bartley. The map reveals the social infrastructure of the time, including School No 2 and the Eidfjord Ch, which stands near a small Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Significant hydrological features such as Baldhill Creek dominate the northern terrain, where a notable Spillway Elev 1392 is documented. Scattered across the landscape are several Gravel Pits, indicating the local extraction and infrastructure needs of this agrarian region during the mid-twentieth century.
