1952 Map of Richmond NE

About this map

Elm River meanders through the central plains of Brown County, defining the agricultural landscape in this mid-century survey. The region is marked by a shifting rural infrastructure, where several community hubs are already noted as inactive, including the Union Sch (Abandoned) and Franklyn Son (Abandoned). These notations provide critical data for genealogists and local historians tracking the consolidation of rural South Dakota districts during the 1950s.
