2016 Map of Ranum

About this map

Sundal and Ranum anchor this agricultural landscape in eastern Norman County, where the township grid is punctuated by numerous rural burial grounds that speak to the area's pioneer heritage. A notable concentration of cemeteries, including the International Order of Good Templars Cem and several congregation-specific sites like Faaberg Norwegian Lutheran Cem, reflects the distinct social and religious organizations of the early settlers. The terrain is defined by low-lying drainage patterns such as Mashaug Cr and Garden Slough, which weave through a network of section-line roads like Co Rd 34 and Co Hwy 36. This map provides a clear record of the enduring rural infrastructure, showing how family-named landmarks like Ness Lutheran Cem and Saint John's Cem remain preserved alongside modern county thoroughfares.
