About this map

The Roseau River meanders through this section of Roseau County, defining a landscape shaped by both natural waterways and a rigid grid of agricultural roads. Smaller tributaries like Severson Cr and Rafferty Cr feed into the river system, while the presence of County Ditch Number Twentyone highlights the area's history of water management for local farming.

Genealogists and local historians will find several notable landmarks marking the rural landscape, including the Falun Cem, Saint Phillips Cem, Beaver Cem, and Pine Grove Cem. These sites, situated at the intersections of routes like Co Rd 126 and 470th Ave, provide anchors for tracing family histories in this part of northern Minnesota. The southeast portion of the map transitions into more densely wooded areas accessed by forest routes such as Tofte Forest Rd and Palsburg Forest Rd.
