2013 Map of Marietta

About this map

Marietta and Nassau anchor this borderland survey, sitting just east of the state line where Lac qui Parle County meets South Dakota. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the S Fork Yellow Bank River and its tributaries, including Mud Cr, which cut through the agricultural grid. Local heritage is preserved in sites like the Swedish Madison CME church and several community burial grounds, including Saint James Cem and Augusta Cem. The map illustrates the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, with primary access provided by MN-40 and a network of section-line roads like 488th Ave and Co Hwy-7. Near Nassau, Pegg Lake stands out as a significant local water feature in an otherwise strictly partitioned prairie environment.
