2017 Map of Litchville

About this map

Litchville serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, where the township grid of North Dakota meets the meandering courses of Spring Cr and Bear Cr. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, evidenced by several small burial grounds scattered across the townships, including the Saint Thomas Cem and Saint Anns Cem to the west, and the Swedish Cem situated further east. This 2017 survey documents the precise intersection of county lines at the Barnes and LaMoure County border, showing a territory defined by section lines and agricultural access via roads like Co Hwy 11. The arrangement of these cemeteries and watercourses suggests a settlement pattern where local heritage remains tied to the specific sections of land surveyed over a century prior.
