About this map

Loma Cemetery sits as a lonely landmark in the northern reaches of this North Dakota landscape, reflecting the long-established pattern of rural burial grounds serving isolated farming communities. This 2011 survey illustrates the rigid section-line grid that dictates the region's geography, with thoroughfares such as 80th St NE and 97th Ave NE carving the prairie into precise square-mile increments. The network of local roads, including 94th Ave NE and 99th Ave NE, facilitates a transport system designed for heavy agriculture and sparse residency. In a landscape defined more by its methodical organization than by dense settlements, these named intersections and the solitary cemetery provide the essential points of reference for local history and genealogical research in this part of Cavalier County.
