2010 Map of Ellerth

About this map

Ellerth and the surrounding township lands in Marshall County are defined by a precision grid of rural roads and the winding paths of the Snake River and Middle River. This 2010 survey reflects the enduring agricultural character of the region, where the landscape is organized by section lines such as 290th St NW and 200th Ave NW. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies key community landmarks that anchor the area's heritage, specifically Bethania Cemetery and Bethesda Cemetery. The intersection of County Hwy 28 and 270th St NW serves as a primary transit point in this northern Minnesota prairie landscape. The drainage patterns of the river systems, particularly the meanders of the Snake River, create the only significant variation in a terrain otherwise dominated by straight-line section roads and large-scale farming tracts.
