1948 Map of Woburn

About this map

The Great Northern railroad cuts a diagonal line across this 1948 survey of Burke County, defining the rural transport network of north-central North Dakota. The small settlement of Woburn serves as a local hub along the rail line, surrounded by a landscape dotted with small prairie potholes and low ridges. The distribution of educational buildings, including Woburn Sch, Scandia Sch, Clayton Sch, and School No 3, illustrates the dense network of one-room schoolhouses required to serve a dispersed farming population in the mid-20th century.
