About this map

Fairland sits near the northern edge of this northern Minnesota landscape, which was meticulously documented by the Corps of Engineers just after the First World War. The region is defined by extensive wetlands and drainage efforts, indicated by the numerous Ditch labels crossing the terrain. The survey captures a significant transition in land history, clearly marking the Original Red Lake Indian Reservation Boundary and the current Red Lake Indian Reservation Boundary. The Black River and the Sturgeon River are the primary watercourses, carving through areas labeled as Timbered, reflecting the importance of the lumber industry and the 1908 reservation survey. Surveyors noted the 14th Standard Parallel North as a primary East-West baseline for land division in these frontier sections of Bannock and Gowdy.
