About this map

The small community of Emmet sits at the intersection of local routes in this modern survey of McLean County. The landscape is defined by the high-plains topography of the Missouri River region, characterized by numerous small depressions and the meandering path of the W Br Douglas Cr. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the area, including the grid of township roads such as 16th St NW and Perimeter Rd that connect the scattered farmsteads and agricultural plots.

Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Clifton Cem in the northeast and Saint Peter Cem further south. Near the boundary of t148n r87w, the Blackwater Cem remains a significant local landmark. The map provides a clear record of the Public Land Survey System boundaries, specifically within t149n r86w and its neighboring townships, reflecting the enduring organizational structure of this North Dakota prairie.
