1961 Map of Turtle Creek NW

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Turtle Creek meanders through this agricultural section of McLean County, its course punctuated by a Gaging Station and the waters of Lake Ordway in the northern reach. The landscape reflects a pattern of rural settlement typical of the early 1960s, defined by section lines and small community centers. Local life is anchored at the crossroads where the Veeder Ch and Veeder School No 2 stand, serving the surrounding farmsteads. Surveyed as part of the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, the map documents a precise moment in North Dakota's mid-century rural infrastructure before further consolidation changed the footprint of local country schools and parishes.
