2017 Map of Galesburg

About this map

Galesburg and Clifford serve as the primary hubs of this eastern North Dakota agricultural landscape, situated along the border of Steele and Traill Counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Elm River, which meanders through a grid of section lines and county highways. The map illustrates a highly organized rural infrastructure, where routes like Co Hwy 16 and Co Hwy 1 connect dispersed farmsteads and small communities. Within the town of Galesburg, Dakota Ave forms the local center near the Elm River Cem, while to the north, the smaller settlement of Clifford sits near the Clifford Cem. This survey preserves the exact placement of local cemeteries and section divisions, essential for family history research in this region of the Red River Valley hinterlands.
