2010 Map of Thor SW

About this map

Malmo Cemetery and Lakeside Cemetery stand as significant genealogical landmarks in this Aitkin County landscape, where the rural road network follows a strict township and range grid. This area of Minnesota is defined by slow-moving drainage systems, with Borden Creek and Peterson Creek meandering through the low-lying terrain. The naming of School House Ln suggests the former sites of rural education centers that once served this farming community. Other local identifiers like Logger Hill Road T242 point toward the historical importance of the timber industry in the region. To the southeast, Ostlund Cemetery serves as another focal point for researchers tracing family histories in this part of the Thor SW quadrangle, which remains largely agricultural and forested into the early 21st century.
