2018 Map of Raleigh

About this map

Raleigh sits on the high plains of Grant County, marking a remote community where the section line roads define the movement across the prairie. The settlement pattern here is sparse, characterized by the occasional cluster of buildings and the essential community hub at Saint Gertrude. A significant local landmark for genealogists and family researchers is the Saint Gertrudes Catholic Cem, located just south of the main settlement along N Tech Dr. The landscape is etched by the winding path of Dogtooth Cr and the waters of the Raleigh Reservoir, providing a vital contrast to the surrounding agricultural grid. This map illustrates the intersection of small-town North Dakota life with the vast township and range system, seen in boundaries like t133n r85w and t132n r85w, which have dictated land ownership for generations.
