2019 Map of Drayton SE

About this map

The North Dakota and Minnesota border region is defined by a rigid grid of rural roads and the flat, agricultural landscape of the Red River Valley. This 2019 survey captures the quiet corner where Kittson and Marshall counties meet, a region largely partitioned by section lines and townships such as t159n r50w and t158n r50w. Local heritage is preserved in the small, scattered burial grounds that serve the farming community, including Skjeberg Lutheran Cem and Teien Covenant Cem. These sites, along with Eagle Point Cem, remain the primary landmarks in an area dominated by large-scale field patterns and county thoroughfares like Co Rd 7 and Co St Aid Hwy 18. The map illustrates the contemporary infrastructure of the American Midwest, where early pioneer legacy is visible through church-affiliated cemeteries and the enduring township-and-range surveying system.
