2010 Map of Iverson Lake

About this map

The Minnesota River winds through this rural landscape in Redwood County, defining the agricultural and geological character of the region. This 2010 survey reveals a land shaped by its waterways and small, scattered settlements such as Middag Knutea. The topography is marked by several significant drainage features, including the meandering Boiling Spring Creek and Echo Creek, which feed into the primary river valley. For genealogists and local historians, the map is a primary resource for locating several isolated burial grounds. These include the Swedes Forest Township Cemetery, Rock Dell Cemetery, and the Koldorn Family Cemetery, which speak to the early family-based settlement patterns of the township. In addition to the river, local water bodies like Iverson Lake, Long Lake, and Nordeen Slough represent the low-lying wetlands and glacial remnants found between the strictly gridded township roads like County Hwy-7 and County Hwy-12.
