2010 Map of Erie

About this map

The Red Lake River meanders through the southern portion of this landscape, defining the topography of an otherwise structured agricultural grid in Pennington County. At the heart of this rural township layout lies Erie, a small settlement nodal point connected by a network of local roads such as County Hwy-26 and County Hwy-6. The map reveals a community organized around family and faith, marked by several distinct burial grounds. Genealogists may find particular interest in the locations of Ekelund Cemetery, Star Cemetery, and Reiner Cemetery, which are spaced across the section lines. This 2010 survey reflects the enduring section-line road system of Northern Minnesota, featuring specialized routes like the Minimum Maintenance Twp Hwy that navigate the low-lying terrain near the riverbanks.
