1951 Map of Westover

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The White River carves a deep, winding path through this central South Dakota landscape, defining the border between Jones and Mellette counties. At the confluence of Horse Creek and the main river, the small settlement of Westover serves as a focal point in an otherwise sparse prairie terrain. The map illustrates the rural infrastructure of the early 1950s, where life revolved around the river valleys and high bluffs like Mullen. Notable landmarks include St Philip Ch and St Marys Ch, alongside the Riverview Sch, which provided essential community hubs for the scattered ranching families. The complex drainage network of the South Fork White River and Cottonwood Creek highlights the erosive nature of the geography during this period of Missouri River Basin development.
