2024 Map of Hanks Corner

About this map

The borderlands of Cavalier and Pembina counties reveal a landscape defined by sharp coulees and rolling plains as they appeared in 2024. The settlement at Hanks Corner serves as a central point in this agricultural region, situated near the intersection of several county roads including Hanks Rd and Co Rd 6. This map is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it identifies several local burial sites including Oak Lawn Cem, Beaulieu Cem, and Spangel Cem, which are scattered across the section lines. The drainage patterns of the Little South Pembina River and the Tongue River dictate the local topography, carving deep features like Smith Coulee and Busse Coulee into the otherwise flat township and range grid system.
