About this map

Stanton and Dennison anchor this agricultural landscape along the borders of Dakota, Goodhue, and Rice counties. The Cannon River flows through the northern reaches, joined by local drainage from Spring Cr and Prairie Cr. This area is characterized by a dense grid of rural roads and long-standing property divisions, including notable routes like Sciota Trl and Wall Street Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Prairie Creek Cem west of the township lines, a central landmark for early families of the region. The presence of the Stanton Airfield north of the main settlement highlights the area's continued importance for local transit and civil aviation. The map details the transition from the river bottomlands to the higher prairie ground, documented through the intricate network of county roads and named trails that have defined local commerce for generations.
