About this map

Leonard sits in the southeastern corner of this map, serving as the primary hub for the surrounding agricultural plains of Cass County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Maple River, which meanders through the northern sections, creating a distinct contrast to the rigid grid of section lines and gravel roads like Co Rd 16 and 46th St SE. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Watson Cem in the northwest and Leonard Cem just outside the town limits, providing clear markers for family research in this North Dakota prairie region. The boundary between Cass, Ransom, and Richland counties converges along the southern edge, illustrating how these administrative lines follow the township and range system through the fertile Red River Valley outskirts.
