About this map

Lake Lillian anchors this landscape in southeastern Kandiyohi County, where the agricultural grid is defined by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure including County Ditch Number Fifty-one and Judicial Ditch Number Twentynine. The area is a mosaic of prairie potholes and water bodies such as Emma Lake and Dog Lake, which feed into natural systems like the S Fork Crow River and Buffalo Cr. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for significant community sites, including the Early Lake Lillian Community Burial Ground and several denominational resting places like the Lake Lillian Baptist Cem. The township boundaries—where Kandiyohi, Meeker, and Renville counties converge—are clearly delineated alongside the section lines and rural road networks that have structured this farming region for generations.
