Marsh River winds through the Red River Valley in this mid-1960s survey, illustrating the intensive drainage engineering required for agricultural development in Norman County. The landscape is defined by a sophisticated grid of man-made waterways, including State Ditch No 68 and numerous county ditches like County Ditch No 33 and County Ditch No 1, which channel water away from the fertile but low-lying fields. The small settlement of Anthony stands near a local townhall, serving as a focal point for the surrounding farming townships of Halstad, Anthony, Hendrum, and Hegne. For genealogists, the Concordia Ch Cem in the southern portion of the map provides a specific point of interest for family history research in this rural Minnesota community.
