About this map

Asheim Cemetery and West Immanuel Cemetery stand as quiet landmarks in this rural corner of Traill County, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the Red River Valley. The landscape is defined by the grid-like progression of section lines and gravel routes such as County Hwy-21 and County Hwy-10, which carve through the fertile prairie. Natural drainage follows the meandering path of the North Branch Goose River in the southwest and Buffalo Coulee to the southeast, features that have historically influenced homestead placement. Genealogists will find particular value in the distribution of family and community burial sites, including the Sodeberg Cemetery and North Prairie Cemetery, which are primary markers of the area's early 20th-century social geography.
