About this map

Lewis and Clark Lake dominates this 1960s landscape, marking the dammed Missouri River on the border of Nebraska and South Dakota. The creation of this reservoir transformed the local topography, establishing a hub for regional recreation that includes the Lewis and Clark Lake State Park, Lesterville Recreation Area, and several specific zones like the Deep Water Recreation Area. South of the shoreline, the rural character of Knox County is defined by organized townships including Frankfort and Eastern.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant markers of the area's early community life. The map identifies the Frankfort Cem and Frankfort Sch, alongside the Crofton United Ch and the West Blyville Sch. Cultural landmarks such as the Fort Yankton Historic Site and the Sioux Council Boy Scout Reservation provide insight into the preservation of history and community utility during the mid-century era.
