2017 Map of Lehr NE

About this map

Glacial geology and rural persistence define this corner of Logan County, dominated by the undulating topography of the Streeter Moraine. This 2017 survey reveals a landscape sparsely populated but deeply rooted in its local heritage, with the grid of section lines and gravel roads such as Mcintosh St N and 53rd Ave SE providing the primary structure for the region. The map serves as a vital record for family historians, anchoring the community's past at the Evangelical Lutheran Zion Cem and King Lutheran Cem. These sites, set against a backdrop of numerous small prairie potholes and wetlands, illustrate the enduring presence of early 20th-century Lutheran settlement patterns in the North Dakota prairie well into the 21st century.
