2017 Map of Geneseo

About this map

Geneseo serves as a central point in this prairie landscape, situated near the Sargent and Richland county line. The terrain is characterized by its complex hydrography, where the Wild Rice River and Shortfoot Creek meander through a series of wetlands and small basins. To the north, Murach Lake sits within a cluster of water bodies, while the southern portion of the sheet is anchored by a reach of Lake Tewaukon. This survey illustrates the rigid section-line road network typical of North Dakota, where routes like 149th Ave SE and 93rd St SE create a geometric grid over the natural drainage patterns. Genealogists will find the Saint Martin Cemetery located just north of the settlement, providing a specific point of reference for local family history research in this agricultural region.
