2013 Map of Rosewood

About this map

Rosewood sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape in the Red River Valley region, straddling the border between Marshall County and Pennington County. The map reveals a highly structured drainage system essential for prairie farming, dominated by the Main Judicial Ditch Number Fifteen and the S Br Snake River. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of several country cemeteries that anchor the community, including the Rindal Scandinavian Lutheran Cem and Wildwood Cem. The land is neatly partitioned by an extensive grid of section-line roads such as 120th Ave NW and Co Hwy-2, reflecting the enduring township-and-range surveying system. This 2013 survey provides a clear look at the rural intersections and water management features that define modern life in this portion of northern Minnesota.
