2022 Map of Lowry

About this map

Lowry and Farwell anchor this western Pope County landscape, which is characterized by a high concentration of small lakes and glacial wetlands. The Little Chippewa River meanders through the central and southern sections, while numerous named water bodies like Wollan Lake, Strandness Lake, and Malmedal Lake define the terrain's low-lying pockets. For researchers, the map provides a exceptionally detailed look at the local spiritual and genealogical landscape, noting several distinct burial grounds. These include the Ben Wade Cem and Norunga Cem in the northern townships, along with the Indherred Church Cem and Early Indherred Community Cem further south. The drainage patterns are further managed by man-made infrastructure like County Ditch Number Seven, reflecting the region's agricultural history and water management practices. A grid of county roads and streets, such as Isabella St and Co Hwy 28, connects these small settlements and historic church sites.
