2019 Map of Huntley

About this map

Winnebago and Blue Earth anchor this agricultural landscape in Faribault County, where the southern Minnesota prairie is defined by an intricate network of natural waterways and engineered drainage. The winding path of the Blue Earth River and its tributaries, such as Center Cr and Badger Cr, cut through the geometric grid of township roads. The map captures the small settlements of Huntley and Guckeen, along with quiet landmarks like West Verona Cem and Verona Cem, which provide valuable touchpoints for family historians. The prevalence of features such as Judicial Ditch Number Four and County Ditch Number Sixty illustrates the intensive water management required to sustain the region's productive farmland. This detailed survey preserves the spatial relationship between these rural communities and the shifting watercourses that have shaped the local economy and settlement patterns for generations.
