2014 Map of Martin

About this map

The settlement of Martin anchors this central North Dakota landscape, situated at a jurisdictional crossroads where Sheridan, Wells, and Pierce Counties meet. This 2014 survey reveals a transition between concentrated township development and the open, prairie pothole terrain characterized by scattered water bodies like Alkali Lake to the north and Johnson Lake and Sorenson Lake to the south. The rural grid is well-defined by an extensive network of range and section lines, including 22nd Ave NE and 31st St NE. Local history is anchored by sites such as the Reform Cem north of town, which serves as a vital marker for genealogists and regional researchers tracing family lineage in these sparsely populated farming townships. The map illustrates how transportation routes like CR-4225 and the diagonal highway corridor have shaped the development and connectivity of this agricultural hub.
