About this map

Brooten and Belgrade anchor this 2013 survey along the border of Stearns Co and Kandiyohi Co. The landscape is defined by its numerous glacial lakes and a complex drainage system, including Tamarack Lake, Crow Lake, and Dia Linn Lake, linked by a series of man-made channels like County Ditch Number 8 Six. These waterways reflect the agricultural engineering required to manage this portion of the Minnesota prairie for farming.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of burial sites across the township lines, such as Union Cem, Saint Donatus Cem, and the Christian Reform Church Cem in the northwest. Near Belgrade, the United Methodist Cem and Zion Cem sit close to the town center, while more remote sites like Crow Lake Cem and Crow River Cem mark the rural sections. Modern developments like the Brooten Municipal Airport and Prairie View Community Golf contrast with the long-established cemetery sites.
