About this map

The winding Des Moines River cuts through this corner of Cottonwood and Murray Counties, shaping a landscape of glacial lakes and wetlands. In the early 1970s, the southern portion of this area was dedicated to conservation within the Talcot Lake State Wildlife Management Area, surrounding the expansive waters of Talcot Lake. The map reveals a rural community anchored by small landmarks of local history, including the Townhall in Rose Hill and several burial grounds such as Rosehill Cem and Emanuel Cem.
