2020 Map of Lansford SE

About this map

The agricultural plains of northern North Dakota are defined by a rigorous section-line grid in this recent survey. The town of Lansford sits in the northwest corner, while the small settlement of Forfar occupies a central position along the county boundary. This landscape transition is marked by the line dividing Bottineau Co and Renville Co, where the flat prairie begins to yield to the drainage patterns of Little Deep Creek. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of Shook Cemetery provides a specific point of interest in the southwestern portion of the sheet. The map illustrates how modern rural life is structured around these historic townships, including t159n r83w and t158n r82w, and the seasonal waterways like Spring Coulee that influence the local topography.
