About this map

The lowlands of Ramsey and Benson counties are defined by a complex drainage network featuring Mauvais Coulee and Little Coulee, which connect a series of glacial lakes including Stink Lake, Lake Murie, and the extensive Pelican Lake. This 1951 survey reveals a rural landscape organized by the township system, where small community hubs like Tilden once served as vital points of contact. Educational and religious life was distributed across the prairie at sites like Antiochia Ch, Big Coulee Ch, and several numbered schools such as School No 7. The region's transport economy was anchored by the Great Northern and the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroads, which facilitated the movement of goods and people across the townships of Normania, Coulee, and Pelican.
