1919 Map of Pelland

About this map

The International Boundary follows the winding course of the Rainy River in this 1919 progressive military survey. The landscape is defined by the confluence of major northern waterways, where the Big Fork River and Little Fork River meet the international border. Along the southern banks, the Minnesota Dakota and Western railroad corridor anchors the early 20th-century economy, connecting riverside settlements such as Pelland, Laurel, and Chamberland. The map reveals a specific moment in the development of Koochiching County, showing the proximity of the Reedy area to the Canadian Rainy River District in Ontario. This sheet was specifically intended for field use by the Corps of Engineers, noting the presence of precise benchmarks and water surface elevations near Big Fork during the post-World War I era.
