2019 Map of Albany

About this map

Albany anchors the southern edge of this Stearns County landscape, where the local infrastructure follows a legacy of transit and agriculture. The presence of Soo Line Ave reflects the historical path of the Soo Line Railroad, which influenced the growth of central Minnesota towns. To the north, the small settlement of St. Anthony is situated amidst a dense network of water bodies, including Saint Anna Lake, Two River Lake, and Bear Lake. These lakes are interconnected by a system of waterways such as the S Two River and managed channels like County Ditch Number Twenty-two. Genealogists will find significant local history at several burial sites, notably Seven Dolors Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Ebenezer Cem, which serve as quiet landmarks for the area's early families and established parishes.
