1919 Map of Liner

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

Grygla stands as a central settlement in this 1919 military survey, situated just north of the Mud River in a landscape heavily defined by early 20th-century drainage efforts. The map specifically references a 1908 drainage survey of Ceded Chippewa lands, illustrating the transition of this northern Minnesota terrain through an extensive network of artificial channels like Jud. Ditch No 11 and Branch 105. Small rural outposts such as Randen, Liner, and Myran are scattered across the township grid, which is divided by the 14th Standard Parallel North. Large swaths of timber and swamp, including the Big Grass area and regions within Northwood and Benville, show the natural state of the land before and during the implementation of these massive ditching projects. Genealogists will find several unnamed School and Church locations that served these developing farming communities near the Fifth Guide Meridian.
