2013 Map of Sargeant

About this map

Waltham and Sargeant anchor this agricultural landscape along the northern border of Mower County in the early 2010s. The terrain is defined by the drainage divide between the Cedar River, which flows south toward the Gulf, and the N Br Root River, part of the Mississippi watershed. This geographic positioning on the divide is reflected in the meandering paths of Roberts Cr and other small headwaters that cut through the rectilinear grid of township roads. Local history is centered on quiet landmarks like the Waltham Cem and Saint John's Lutheran Cem, while the Po in Sargeant remains a focal point for the rural community. The map illustrates the persistent structure of Minnesota's farm country, where the intersection of Dodge Mower RD and various numbered avenues like 600th Ave organizes the productive prairie land.
