About this map

The Roseau River meanders across the international border in this early 1930s survey, marking a landscape defined by an extensive drainage system. Large-scale water management projects are evident through a network of engineered waterways, including State Ditch No 72, State Ditch No 69, and State Ditch No 95, which cut across the townships of Caribou, Blooming Valley, and Polonia. This infrastructure reflects the era's significant efforts to reclaim northern Minnesota wetlands for agricultural use.

Rural life is anchored by small settlements like Caribou and Leo, along with a dense distribution of country schools such as Oak Point Sch, Red Top Sch, and Johnson Sch. The topography features subtle but distinct landmarks like Juneberry Ridge and Moose Point. Genealogists will find particular value in the specific locations of family-named institutions, such as Lasniewski Sch, and the presence of St Pauls Ch near the boundary with Canada United States.
