About this map

The winding Red River of the North defines the western edge of this agricultural landscape in Kittson County, serving as the border between Minnesota and North Dakota. At the center of this 2011 survey lies Mattson, a small settlement positioned at the intersection of local township roads and county highways. The map illustrates a highly organized grid of rural infrastructure, including County Hwy-10 and County Hwy-67, which facilitate movement through the flat plains of the Red River Valley.

Two significant local landmarks provide vital context for genealogists and local historians. The Tabitha Lutheran Cemetery is located in the northern portion of the map, while the Red River Cemetery sits further south. These sites, along with the dense network of township roads like Twp Hwy T-132 and Twp Hwy T-195, document the enduring community structure and land-use patterns of this northern border region.
