2017 Map of Whitman

About this map

The small settlement of Whitman sits in the heart of this agricultural landscape in Nelson County, where the plains are etched by the winding path of the Middle Br Forest River. This map reveals a high-density grid of section roads and avenues, such as 115th Ave NE and 57th St NE, that define the region's township-and-range development. A notable cultural landmark is the East Sarnia Lutheran Cem, located along Co Rd 2, serving as a silent record of the area's pioneer heritage and Scandinavian-American roots. The boundary line between Walsh Co and Nelson Co bisects the northern reaches of the sheet, following the path of 54th St and the 54th St NE Prairie Trl, illustrating how early administrative borders were often tied directly to the utilitarian survey grid.
