2016 Map of Florian

About this map

Florian and the nearby settlement of Englund anchor this Marshall County landscape, where the Tamarac River meanders across a heavily gridded agricultural plain. The map reveals a high concentration of community burial grounds that suggest the area's early Lutheran and Catholic settlement patterns, including Salem Lutheran Cem, Assumption Cem, and the Swedish Cem. The vast township system of the Public Land Survey is clearly visible through the strictly organized road network, with routes like Co Hwy 1 and Co Hwy 6 following section lines. This document provides a clear look at the enduring rural character of northern Minnesota in the early 21st century, where the small community of Florian serves as a local focal point for the surrounding farmsteads and cemeteries.
