2014 Map of Brocket

About this map

Brocket serves as the primary settlement on this North Dakota prairie landscape, situated near the intersection of Nd-1 and 55th St NE. The area is characterized by a high density of small kettle ponds and wetlands typical of the region's glacial history, most notably Clear Lake and McHugh Slough. For genealogical researchers, the map provides precise locations for several local burial sites, including Saint Joseph Cem and Vaage Cem located just east of the main town site, as well as Hoff Cem further to the west. This 2014 survey documents the grid-based road network that defines the rural borders of Ramsey, Nelson, and Walsh counties, which all meet in this vicinity. The landscape is primarily shaped by agriculture and water, with a vast network of section roads like 107th Ave NE and Co Road 19 connecting isolated farmsteads across the undulating terrain.
