2016 Map of Dawson
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Dawson sits at the confluence of several vital prairie waterways, including the main Lac qui Parle River and its West Branch. The 2016 landscape reflects over a century of agricultural modification, documented by the presence of numerous drainage systems like County Ditch Number Twentyseven and Judicial Ditch Number Four. For genealogists and local historians, the community is anchored by three distinct burial grounds: Dawson Cem, Riverside Cem, and Trinity Lutheran Cem. The town's grid is preserved in detail, with streets from Oak St to Spruce St and the distinctive diagonal cut of Diagonal St, suggesting the influence of early railroad platting on the local topography.
