About this map

Lake Henry and the surrounding agricultural landscape of central Minnesota are captured here in a period of modern rural continuity. The namesake settlement of Lake Henry sits at the junction of MN-4 and Co HWY-19, serving as a focal point for the surrounding farming community. To the southwest, the small community of Regal is situated along MN-55, where the terrain begins to slope toward the winding path of the N Fork Crow River.

Genealogists will find a concentration of local history in the numerous burial grounds marking the landscape, including Saint Margaret Cem, Saint Paul's Lutheran Cem, and Saint Anthony Cem. The boundary between Stearns County and Kandiyohi County cuts through the southern portion of the map, illustrating how political lines bisect this river-carved prairie. The network of local roads like Roseville Rd NE and 343rd Ave reveals the enduring grid system of the region's townships.
