About this map

The United States Canada International Boundary defines the northern edge of this landscape, where the Roseau River and its North Fork wind through extensive wetlands labeled simply as Swamp. Compiled by the Corps of Engineers, U.S. Army from a 1918 military survey, this map shows a region defined by early 20th-century water management efforts, featuring an extensive grid of drainage projects like Proposed State Ditch No 98 and numerous numeric laterals. The Great Northern railway provides the primary industrial spine for the territory, connecting small communities such as Salol and Mandus. Genealogists will find several rural landmarks, including a Cem near Spruce and multiple numbered schoolhouses scattered across the townships of Norland, Totogan, and Falun. Localized settlements like Pequis and Malung are anchored by specific elevation benchmarks and river forks, illustrating the early settlement patterns of Roseau County.
