2016 Map of Randolph

About this map

The Cannon River and Lake Byllesby anchor the southern reaches of this landscape where the borders of Dakota Co and Goodhue Co meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Chub Cr, the S Br Vermillion River, and Pine Cr, which have shaped the agricultural development of the region. Small settlements such as Randolph, Hampton, and Castle Rock are dispersed across a grid of section roads and county highways like Co Rd 47 and Co Rd 80. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of local burial sites, from Saint Mathias Cem in the northeast to the more isolated Kibbe Cem and Redrose Cem further south. These landmarks, along with aviation sites like Lucht Field, illustrate the rural social structure and transportation evolution of southern Minnesota.
