2020 Map of Lehr NW

About this map

Small rural burial grounds and isolated homesteads define this section of the North Dakota prairie, where the landscape is etched by a dense network of glacial potholes and wetlands. The map identifies several culturally significant sites for family history and local genealogy, such as the Sukut Family Rest Cem and the Emanuel Congregation Cem. These sites, along with Saint Lucas Cem and Hope EUB Church Cem, serve as the primary landmarks in an otherwise open, agricultural expanse. The section lines are clearly marked by gravel roads like 48th Ave SE and 70th St SE, which grid the undulating terrain and connect the dispersed farmsteads that characterize this portion of Logan County. The mapping of these small cemeteries provides a specific spatial record of early settlement patterns and the religious life of the rural communities that established themselves in the region.
