About this map

Paynesville sits at the northern edge of this landscape, serving as a gateway to the extensive waters of Lake Koronis and its distinct island features, First Island, Second Island, and Third Island. The map records a transition from the structured residential and commercial grid of the town to the complex glacial hydrology of the surrounding countryside. The North Fork Crow River meanders through the terrain, connecting a series of smaller water bodies including Mud Lake, Krueger Lake, and West Lake.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks such as the Ebenezer Church Cem and Manannah Cem, which mark the settlement history along the Stearns Co Meeker Co line. Transportation infrastructure is represented by the Paynesville Municipal Airport and the modern Paynesville Byp, contrasting with the more traditional rural road network like Co Hwy 34 and Old Hwy 23 that still serves the outlying farms and lakeside properties.
