2017 Map of Revillo

About this map

Revillo and Albee serve as the primary residential hubs in this section of Grant County, where the agricultural landscape is defined by a grid of section roads and the winding path of the S Fork Yellow Bank River. This survey captures a rural territory heavily populated by small community burial grounds, such as West Vernon Cem and Saint Pauls Cem, which reflect the localized history of the surrounding townships. The hydrology of the area is centered on the river and Mud Creek, which cut through the level terrain. For genealogists and local researchers, the map provides precise locations for these scattered sites, including Recaboth Cem and Saint Mary's Cem, which are often the most tangible remaining markers of early settlement patterns in this part of South Dakota.
