1950 Map of Sheyenne Lake NE

About this map

The Sheyenne River meanders across this rural landscape along the boundary of Sheridan Co and Wells Co, North Dakota. Mapped just after World War II, the sheet reveals a tightly knit prairie community organized around its local rural school districts and religious centers. Genealogists can identify the locations of the Mennonite Ch and Zion Cem, while the distribution of numerous educational sites, such as Fairview Sch No 1 and Berlin Sch No 2, illustrates the density of the farm population during this era. The topography transitions from the wetland-dotted plains near Sorenson Lake to the more pronounced relief of Pony Gulch, providing a detailed view of the Missouri River Basin development area before significant modern agricultural consolidation.
