About this map

The Middle Branch Zumbro River and Middle Fork Zumbro River carve through this landscape at the junction of Goodhue and Dodge counties. Small rural centers like Concord and Berne anchor the agricultural landscape, which is defined by a series of high-plateau farmsteads and wooded river bluffs. In the northeast, the settlement of Roscoe is situated near the St Rose Ch and its associated St Rose Cem.

The presence of numerous local burial grounds, including Riverside Cem and Fairpoint Cem, provides significant detail for researchers of the area's mid-century settlement patterns. While the land is primarily used for cultivation, specific industrial activities are noted by scattered Gravel Pits, and community social life is represented by the Conservation Club near the river's edge. This 1960s survey records the township boundaries of Cherry Grove and Milton before later development altered these rural corridors.
