1968 Map of Sherbrooke

About this map

Sherbrooke stands as a focal point in this 1960s study of the North Dakota prairie, situated within the wider administrative divisions of Easton and Sherbrooke townships. The landscape is characterized by a high density of small water bodies and wetlands typical of the region, interspersed with a grid of section lines and field boundaries. Evidence of local infrastructure includes the Sherbrooke Cem and numerous Gravel Pits, indicating the essential extraction of materials for road building in this rural expanse. Bordering Golden Lake 34 to the north and reaching toward Hugo in the south, the map illustrates a highly organized agricultural layout where fine dashed red lines denote fence and field lines captured during 1964 aerial photography.
