Event Description - Surveying is one of the oldest professions, dating back 5,000 years to ancient Egypt. Many of our country's founding fathers, including George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, were surveyors. The territories of America were divided, platted, deemed fit for purchase, and ultimately settled in millions of small parcels, all determined by surveyors. R.F. Pettigrew and his brother Fred also had an influence on charting land in the Dakotas.
This Event organized by Siouxland Heritage Museums.
