1967 Map of Thief Lake NE

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Nereson State Wildlife Management Area dominates the marshy landscape of this Roseau County quadrant, illustrating the vast wetland conservation efforts in Northern Minnesota during the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by the slow-moving Roseau River and its South Fork Roseau R, which carve through a network of drainage ditches and low-lying brush. Small rural clusters like Stafford and Poplar Grove mark the scattered settlement pattern of the era, where agricultural life centered around community landmarks like Palmville Ch and the Oak Hill Cem. The inclusion of several Gravel Pit sites suggests a local economy tied to road maintenance and regional infrastructure. This map reveals a specific moment before later 1980s updates, preserving the original township boundaries of Stafford, Grimstad, and Palmville alongside the extensive drainage systems required to manage the northern plains water table.
