About this map

Red Lake Indian Reservation dominates the center of this 1919 military survey, documenting a landscape defined by its waterways and timbered tracts. The winding Red Lake River and Clearwater River carve through the terrain, meeting at the western edge of Lower Red Lake. Small settlements like Churnes and Berner serve as focal points for local history, with the latter featuring a dedicated School and Church. A complex network of drainage infrastructure, marked simply as Ditch, reflects early efforts to manage the wetlands near Meadows. The map also traces the Original Survey Boundary and the Red Lake Indian Reservation Boundary, providing clear demarcation of land divisions between the townships of Greenwood, Leon, and Sinclair. This document captures the transition from undisturbed timberland to a rural agricultural and reservation economy along the Red Lake Falls Road.
