About this map

Agricultural lands along the state line between North Dakota and South Dakota define this mid-century landscape, surveyed for the development of the Missouri River Basin. The prairie is marked by a network of rural schoolhouses and neighborhood churches, reflecting the community structure of Ada, Savo, and Liberty townships. Small, family-centric landmarks like the Youngman Sch and Engle Sch sit amidst a terrain punctuated by water features such as Cannon Run and Flowing Well. Cultural heritage is particularly evident in the presence of the Finnish Ch and St Marks Ch, which served the local farming population near the Dickey and Brown County line. The reliance on intermittent water sources is seen in the meandering path of Dry Run, while a solitary Cem stands as a quiet record of early settlers in this border region.
