2019 Map of Hawick

About this map

Hawick is situated in a landscape defined by the numerous glacial basins and wetlands of central Minnesota, where the Middle Fork Crow River meanders toward the eastern boundary. This area is a critical junction for local history, as it sits at the intersection of Stearns, Kandiyohi, and Meeker counties. The settlement pattern is characterized by its rural spacing, punctuated by several community landmarks such as Roseville Cem and the Zion Irving Lutheran Cem. To the northeast, the outskirts of Paynesville appear near the Paynesville Byp, marking the modern development of the region's transportation network. Significant water bodies, including Lake Koronis, Lake Calhoun, and Otter Lake, are prominent features that have likely influenced the local economy and recreation for generations. The abundance of community sites, like the Evangelical Free Church Cem, provides valuable location data for genealogical research and local history studies.
