About this map

The Souris River carves a winding path through the heart of Ward County, defining the agricultural and transportation corridor of this prairie landscape. The late 1940s brought a period of established rural infrastructure, evidenced by the dense network of numbered schoolhouses such as School No 2 and Bell Sch No 2, and community anchors like the Town Hall in Surrey. This era was also marked by the vital role of the railroads, with the Great Northern and the Minneapolis St. Paul and Sault Ste Marie providing essential connections for the grain and livestock of the region.
