2020 Map of Finley NE

About this map

The Grand Forks Co Steele Co line bisects this agricultural landscape, where the headwaters of Beaver Cr meander through a series of prairie potholes and wetlands. The settlement pattern is defined by the Public Land Survey System, with a rigid grid of gravel roads like Co Rd 16 and Co Hwy 16 providing access to isolated farmsteads and rural landmarks. Three distinct burial grounds serve as anchor points for local genealogy, including West Union Cem in the north and the aptly named Silent Hill Cem further south. This 2020 edition documents a contemporary view of the Red River Valley's upland margins, preserving the locations of family cemeteries like Hoff Cem that remain vital links to the region's Scandinavian and pioneer heritage.
