2010 Map of Clements

About this map

Clements serves as the primary community anchor in this portion of Redwood County, characterized by a highly organized agricultural grid. The landscape is defined by extensive drainage engineering, as evidenced by the long, straight runs of County Ditch Number Twenty-two and County Ditch Number One Hundred Six. These features reflect the historic transformation of the regional prairie into productive farmland, a process also indicated by the Three Lakes Lakebed, which suggests a significant modification of the natural hydrology to accommodate settlement and cultivation. Family history and local heritage are concentrated at the southern edge of the township, where the Saint Joseph Cemetery and Bethlehem Cemetery are located near the Clements Post Office. Farther north, the Crestlawn Memorial Garden provides another point of genealogical interest along the section roads.
