About this map

Luverne anchors the southern boundary of this survey, marking a small settlement at the intersection of Paulson St and 3rd Ave. The landscape is a characteristically glaciated prairie, heavily dotted with localized water bodies such as Lone Tree Lake, Willow Lake, and Stony Lake. Along the western edge, the Sheyenne River carves a distinct valley, closely followed by the winding path of the N Country National Scenic Trail.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the multiple burial sites throughout the township, including the Original Lund Cem, Lund Cem, Pederson Cem, and Luverne Cem. The rural infrastructure is defined by a rigid section-line grid of county roads, such as Co Hwy 25 and Co Hwy 5, which facilitate access to remote homesteads and the Johnson Private Airstrip. This map illustrates the intersection of Griggs and Steele Counties, showing a resilient agricultural community built around its water sources and historical cemetery sites.
