2016 Map of Saint Michael

About this map

Albertville and Saint Michael anchor this 2016 study of the suburbanizing landscape northwest of the Twin Cities. The area is defined by the winding course of the Crow River and a dense concentration of glacial lakes, including Pelican Lake, Beebe Lake, and Lake Charlotte. The map documents a transition from agricultural roots to modern commercial development, exemplified by the Outlets at Albertville situated near the intersection of County Highway 37. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites such as the Saint Michael Cemetery, Saint Albert Cemetery, and the Salem Lutheran Church Cemetery near Burschville. The detailed road network, from the residential streets of Hanover to the rural County Road 37 NE, shows the expansion of these communities into the surrounding Wright and Hennepin County countryside.
