2017 Map of Elliott

About this map

The small settlement of Elliott serves as the central point of this prairie landscape in Ransom County. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Sheyenne River, which cuts through the northeastern corner of the map, creating a distinct break in the otherwise orderly grid of section lines and gravel roads. This 2017 survey reflects the enduring agricultural character of the region, where roads like Elliott Rd and Valley Rd connect isolated homesteads and farms. In the southwestern corner, the Dick Cem stands as a significant marker for local genealogists and historians tracing the early families of this township. The map provides a clear look at the drainage patterns and wetlands that dot the fields, highlighting the seasonal water management essential to North Dakota farming.
