About this map

Minneapolis St Paul And Sault Ste Marie railroad tracks cut diagonally across this prairie landscape, anchoring the small settlement of Lemert. The terrain is defined by the glacial depressions and drainage patterns of Rocky Run and Pipestem Creek, which meander through townships including Fairville and Woodward. Local genealogy and community life are well-represented by the Norwegian Lutheran Cem and Stavanger Ch in the northwest corner, along with several rural schoolhouses such as School No 1 and School No 2 that served the surrounding farmsteads. These landmarks reflect the mid-century agricultural and religious character of Wells County before the consolidation of rural school districts.
