2013 Map of Darfur

About this map

Darfur sits at the intersection of MN-30 and Co HWY-4, serving as the primary hub in this agricultural region where Brown, Cottonwood, and Watonwan Counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the N Fork Watonwan River and the Watonwan River, which cut through the prairie and feed into local water bodies like Wood Lake and Ewy Lake. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the rural distribution of religious and commemorative sites, documenting the Saint Johns Cem, Bethlehem Cem, and Salem Cem. The presence of the First Mennonite Cem and the Haseman Post Cem underscores the area's deep-rooted denominational heritage and the importance of localized burial grounds in maintaining family histories within the township structure.
