2018 Map of Medina SE

About this map

Saint Peters Cem sits at a high point in the southwestern corner of this Stutsman County landscape, a vital anchor for local genealogists researching the rural prairie history of central North Dakota. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of glacial depressions and wetlands, including named water bodies such as Stink Lake in the northwest and School Lake near the eastern boundary. This topography, part of the Missouri Coteau, dictates the placement of the section-line road grid, where routes like 52nd Ave SE and 38th St SE navigate around numerous unnamed sloughs and seasonal ponds. The map illustrates the persistent 1:24,000 scale detail of the Public Land Survey System, showing the boundaries between townships T139N and T138N, which divide the agricultural tracts and wetland areas.
