About this map

The North Fork Sheyenne River meanders through the heart of this Pierce County landscape, defining the rural character of the early 1950s. The region is marked by a grid of school districts and townships, including Alexander, Truoman, and Hagel. This survey documents a social geography anchored by local education, featuring distributed schoolhouses such as Strasburg School No 4, Sampson School No 1, and Odessa School No 3. In the southern portion of the map, the Great Northern railroad provides a critical transportation link for the agrarian community. Water features like Sandy Lakes and Lesmeister Lake are surrounded by terrain scattered with several Gravel Pits, indicating local industry. Spiritual and memorial life is centered at the Eden Valley Ch and the Strasburg Cem, which remain as vital touchstones for family historians and genealogists.
