2018 Map of Kief

About this map

Kief stands as the primary settlement on this Central North Dakota landscape, situated at the junction of Main St and Addition St. The town is supported by the nearby Kief Cem, serving as a vital point for genealogists and local historians tracing families in this prairie region. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense concentration of glacial potholes and permanent water bodies, most notably Moesner Lake, Ebel Lake, and Krueger Lake. This survey illustrates the intricate township and range system at the intersection of three counties: McHenry, McLean, and Sheridan. The layout of section lines and township roads like 31st St NE and Center Ave N reflects the enduring agricultural grid that organized the Dakotas during the homesteading era.
