The Thief River winds through the northwestern corner of this Pennington County landscape, defining the only major natural break in an otherwise highly organized agricultural grid. This survey captures a rural territory dominated by straight-line section roads and county highways that reflect the systematic settlement patterns of the Red River Valley region. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of burial grounds across the township. Near the river sits the Satersdal Cemetery, while further south, the Silverton Cemetery and Silver Creek Cemetery are located adjacent to one another. The central portion of the map is anchored by the Bethlehem Cemetery along County Hwy-51, illustrating how these small community landmarks serve as the primary identifiers for this quiet stretch of northern Minnesota farmland.
