2020 Map of Deering

About this map

The prairie landscape of the Drift Prairie region takes center stage in this detailed survey of north-central North Dakota. This section of the state is defined by the intersection of three counties—Ward, Renville, and McHenry—with the town of Deering serving as the primary hub along Main St E. The drainage of Little Deep Cr and the waters of Spring Coulee carve through the agricultural grid, revealing the subtle hydrology of the Souris River basin. Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of local burial sites, including the Nidaros Lutheran Cem near Wolseth, as well as Bethel Cem and Deering Lutheran Cem. Aviation history is noted by the presence of Millers Airstrip, reflecting the importance of private flight in these expansive northern plains.
