About this map

The Little Cannon River valley defines the character of this Goodhue County landscape, where the watercourse winds northward toward the southern edge of Cannon Falls. This agricultural region is punctuated by small, established communities like Wangs and Sogn, which anchor a network of rural roads and section lines. The map reveals a high density of local heritage sites, particularly in its numerous cemeteries that reflect the early settlement patterns of the area's immigrant populations.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of these burial grounds, from Saint Anscars Cem in the north to Eidsvold Cem in the south, alongside Oxford Cem, Wangen Prairie Cem, and Urland Cem. The terrain transitions from the river bottoms to more elevated tracts like those near Skunk Hollow Trl, while smaller tributaries such as Prairie Cr and Butler Cr drain the surrounding fields.
