About this map

Binford serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and protected wetlands. The town's grid, featuring W Miller Ave and Winnery St, sits at the intersection of a local transportation network including Co Rd 8. Genealogists will find significant local records through the presence of several burial sites, such as Bethany Cem, Binford Gospel Tabernacle Cem, and Lutheran Cem, which anchor the surrounding agricultural townships.

The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Sibley Lake National Wildlife Refuge, a critical habitat encompassing Sibley Lake and nearby Rush Lake. This region of Griggs County is characterized by numerous seasonal and permanent water bodies, including Lake Jessie, Lake Addie, and Plum Lake, highlighting the area's importance to migratory waterfowl and local conservation efforts through various units of the Griggs County Waterfowl Production Area.
