1956 Map of Savo NW

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Maple River meanders across this rural borderland during the mid-1950s, bisecting the boundary between Dickey and Brown counties and the state line between North Dakota and South Dakota. This prairie landscape is primarily defined by its township-based settlement patterns, specifically within Van Meter, Osceola, and Savo. A distinctive cultural layer is visible through the presence of rural gathering places like the Finnish Ch and Apostolic Ch, alongside several local schoolhouses including Maunu Sch and Alatalo Sch. The map reveals a shifting rural infrastructure with School No 2 and School No 3 already marked as out of use. To the east, the topography rises toward Cannon Hill, providing a stark contrast to the low-lying river drainage system that dominates the central portion of the quadrangle.
