2022 Map of White Rock

About this map

White Rock and Wastedo anchor this rural Goodhue County landscape, where agriculture and early settlement patterns remain etched into the terrain. The topography is defined by the winding course of Belle Cr and the incision of Clark Valley, creating a network of ridges and hollows that historically dictated road placement and land use. For genealogists and local historians, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites, including the Episcopal Church Cem, Jempland Cem, and the centrally located Spring Garden Cem. Near the settlement of Wastedo, an Old Cem serves as a silent marker of the area's pioneer past. The road network, largely following section lines but occasionally deviating for the contours of Skunk Hollow Trl or Echo Valley Trl, illustrates the persistence of early township boundaries and transit corridors in this corner of Minnesota.
