About this map

Worthing anchors the eastern edge of this Lincoln County landscape, showing its modern residential layout and the nearby Worthing Cem. The surrounding terrain is defined by a sophisticated water management system, including Ditch Number 14, Ditch Number Four, and Ditch Number Eight, which drain the agricultural prairie into natural watercourses like Beaver Cr and Snake Cr.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds distributed across the townships, including Mount Olivet Cem, Saint Edwards Cem, and the West Prairie Lutheran Cem. The presence of these sites, alongside landmarks such as Lake Albert, illustrates the long-standing community structure in this part of South Dakota. The survey also captures the grid of rural roads and highways, such as Co Hwy 111, that connect these isolated homesteads and cemeteries.
