2019 Map of Middle River

About this map

The town of Middle River sits at the heart of this Marshall County survey, where the winding waterway of the Middle River cuts through the flat agricultural landscape. This 2019 survey documents a community deeply rooted in its local heritage, evidenced by the numerous burial grounds scattered across the surrounding sections. Local history is reflected in the placement of the First Lutheran Cem, Finnish Lutheran Cem, and the Spruce Valley Cem, which speak to the area’s settlement patterns and cultural origins. Away from the central township, landmarks like Chanlin Field and several smaller family or community cemeteries, including Huntly Cem and Gaarde Cem, are connected by a rigid grid of rural routes such as Co HWY 6 and 370th ST Ne. This modern digital survey provides a clear view of the prairie's conversion to structured farmland while maintaining the geographic markers of its early inhabitants.
