2014 Map of New Leipzig South

About this map

The town of New Leipzig anchors this map at the junction of the Cannonball River and a local rail corridor. For genealogists and local historians, the area is notable for its numerous burial grounds scattered across the plains, including Congregation Cem, Immanuel Cem, and Saint Johns Cem near the town center, as well as the more remote Finnish Cem and Fleak Cem. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Cannonball River, which carves deep contours into the landscape as it flows eastward. Further south, the drainage of Sheep Cr leads toward Pretty Rock Lake, illustrating the water-dependent settlement patterns of Grant County. This survey also records the boundary line between Hettinger and Grant counties, marking the western edge of the quadrangle where agricultural plots give way to more complex topography.
