About this map

Grand Meadow serves as the central hub of this Mower County landscape, situated at the intersection of Co HWY 8 and several local routes like Main St S. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the N Fork Bear Cr and S Fork Bear Cr to the north, and the S Br Root River to the south.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites scattered throughout the township, such as the Methodist Norwegian Cem and Saint Finbarrs Cem. The map also illustrates the agricultural management of the region through features like Judicial Ditch Number One, which channels water through the southern sections. This 2019 survey documents a rural Minnesota community where historical landmarks like Bear Creek Cem and Sevar Temanson Cem remain preserved amidst the rectilinear grid of modern section lines and county roads.
