2016 Map of Morristown

About this map

Morristown and Warsaw anchor this southern Minnesota landscape where the Cannon River weaves through a series of significant glacial water bodies. The terrain is defined by the proximity of Sakatah Lake, Lower Sakatah Lake, and Morristown Pond, creating a complex wetland and riparian network. For local historians and genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites that reflect the early community structure, including Riverside Cem, Hillside Cem, and the Blooming Grove Methodist Cem. The southern portion of the quadrangle transitions into a more rural, pond-dotted landscape where Waterville Cr and Mackenzie Cr drain towards the neighboring county lines of Waseca and Steele. The map also documents the interface of Catholic and Methodist traditions through landmarks like Corpus Christi Catholic Cem and Emmanuel Cem.
