About this map

Grandin is the focal point of this agricultural landscape in Cass County, established along the eastern edge of the quadrangle where the town's grid meets County Hwy 81. The surrounding terrain is defined by the wandering courses of the Elm River and the South Branch Elm River, which cut through a strictly ordered network of section-line roads like 160th Ave and 17th St SE.

Genealogical interest is found at Grandin Cemetery north of the settlement and Rose Valley Cemetery further south, providing anchors for family history research in this rural township. The layout of the region reflects over a century of land management, punctuated by landmarks such as Woitzel Field and a series of rural avenues and streets that facilitate the movement of goods through this portion of North Dakota.
