1970 Map of Still Lake NE

About this map

Sisseton Indian Reservation Boundary bisects this agricultural landscape, marking a historical division across the townships of Farmington, Lura, and Germantown. This 1970 survey captures the rural character of the region where Blooming Valley meets the drainage of the Indian River and Soo Creek. Local community life is anchored by a Townhall in the south and the St Johns Ch and accompanying Cem further north. The map also delineates the transition across the Grant Co Codington Co line, illustrating the network of section-line roads and field boundaries that define the eastern South Dakota plains during the early 1970s. Industrial activity is limited but present, noted by a localized Gravel Pit near the southern townships.
