About this map

The village of New London sits at the heart of this central Minnesota landscape, where the Middle Fork Crow River connects a chain of large water bodies including Lake Monongalia and Nest Lake. This modern survey reveals the area's intricate hydrologic network and the recreational corridors that have come to define it, such as the Glacial Lakes State Trl which follows a former rail alignment. The terrain is part of the broader Bonanza Valley, a region shaped by glacial activity that left behind numerous smaller potholes and marshes north of the main lakes.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several established burial grounds, including Oak Hill Cem, Lebanon Cem, and Our Lady of the Lakes Cem near the southern shoreline. The map documents the residential expansion around the lakefronts, seen in the dense street networks like Riverwood Cir and Norway Woods Cir, contrasting with the open agricultural sections in the township's northern reaches.
