About this map

The prairie landscape of Pierce County is defined here by a series of significant glacial water bodies, most notably Round Lake, which dominates the northern sections of the township. This 2020 record of the region illustrates the strict grid of the Public Land Survey System, where section lines are traced by a network of gravel roads including 74th St NE and 20th Ave NE.

For those tracing local roots, two distinct burial sites provide valuable genealogical anchors: Southwest Barton Cem near the western margin and Marker Lutheran Cem further south. The map also details the wetlands surrounding Horseshoe Lake and Rush Lake, highlighting the hydrologic character of this North Dakota agricultural area. The absence of major towns emphasizes the rural, decentralized nature of the county's history and settlement patterns.
