2020 Map of Marion NW

About this map

The intersection of three North Dakota counties—Stutsman, Barnes, and LaMoure—defines the southern and western reaches of this prairie landscape. The area is characterized by a high density of small wetlands and depressions typical of the Missouri Coteau region, with Dry Coulee providing a notable topographic break in the southeastern quadrant. The most significant historical landmark is the North Marion Reformed Church Cem, located near the intersection of 50th St SE and 98th Ave SE. This religious site serves as a vital anchor for family researchers and genealogists tracing the rural settlement patterns of the Meadow Lake Township area. The map illustrates a strictly rectilinear section-line road network, including Co Hwy 37, which overlays a complex natural hydrology of scattered prairie potholes.
