About this map

The Keya Paha River winds through the northern portion of this landscape, marking a significant geographic and political threshold at the South Dakota Nebraska border. This mid-1960s survey documents a sparsely settled ranching and farming area within Burton township, where the terrain is defined by the deep incisions of Deckers Gulch and the drainage network of Holt Creek and its branches.

Genealogists and local historians will find evidence of the rural community's infrastructure in the Jordan Sch and two distinct burial grounds, Kenaston Cem and Jordan Cem. The map also captures the Rosebud Indian Reservation Boundary as it interacts with the river and county lines between Tripp Co and Keya Paha Co. The presence of a Gravel Pit and numerous springs suggests a reliance on local natural resources for both industry and livestock.
