About this map

Claremont and the surrounding farmland of Dodge County are defined by a grid of agricultural section lines and the winding tributaries of the Zumbro River system. The landscape is primarily shaped by the S Br Middle Fork Zumbro River and Milliken Cr, which cut through the terrain north of the settled areas. To the south, Dodge Center Cr meanders near the growing community of Dodge Center, reflecting the region's reliance on these watercourses for drainage and early development.

For local historians, the inclusion of the Claremont Street Cem and the Ashland - Ripley Cem provides essential spatial context for nineteenth-century family plots. The map traces the historical road network, from the small hamlet of Eden to the established streets of Claremont, including Church St and S Elm St, illustrating how these towns served as vital hubs for the surrounding prairie homesteads.
