About this map

Comfrey sits at the intersection of Brown and Cottonwood counties, serving as a central hub for this agricultural landscape during the early 21st century. The town is marked by its Post Office and a grid of residential streets including Court St S, reflecting a long-standing settlement pattern in southern Minnesota. Beyond the town limits, the landscape is defined by the winding path of the N Fork Watonwan River and the Watonwan River, which dictated the early drainage and land use of the region.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks such as the Christian Reformed Cem and Congregational Cem, which anchor the surrounding rural sections. The township's development is traced through a precise network of section roads like 330th St and 580th Ave, alongside managed waterways like County Ditch Number Thirtynine, illustrating the engineering required to maintain this productive prairie farmland.
