2014 Map of Fairmount

About this map

The Bois de Sioux River defines the border between North Dakota and Minnesota in this 2014 survey, winding northward through the Red River Valley. The town of Fairmount serves as the primary settlement on the North Dakota side, characterized by a structured grid including S Front St and 1st Ave S. The landscape is defined by its agrarian patterns and critical water management infrastructure, most notably the Judicial Ditch Number Eleven-Ten. To the east, the small settlement of Childs sits near the confluence of local drainages and the Rabbit River. This map is particularly useful for genealogical research, as it identifies three distinct burial sites: Calvary Cem, Fairmount Cem, and Pleasant Hill Cem. The inclusion of the Wetherbee Farm Airport reflects the continued importance of private aviation in supporting the region's large-scale farming operations.
