1971 Map of Holmes

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The small settlement of Holmes sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape along the border of Grand Forks and Traill Counties. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by a precise section-line road grid that services a network of remote farmsteads and rural community centers. Local heritage is concentrated at sites like Holmes Ch and Bethany Ch, while the Bethany Cem and another Cem near the county line offer valuable points of interest for genealogical research. The land is largely open, punctuated by seasonal drainage and the winding path of Cole Creek. Specialized landmarks of the era include the Gensrich Landing Field, a localized Townhall, and a Radio Tower (WDAY) that signals the area's connection to wider regional broadcasts. Scattered Gravel Pit operations indicate the local extraction industry supporting the township road system.
