About this map

The boundary between Watonwan Co and Blue Earth Co divides this rural landscape in south-central Minnesota. At the heart of the area, the settlement of Willow Creek sits near the confluence of several small waterways. The geography is defined by the winding paths of Perch Cr and Willow Cr, which snake through agricultural sections and low-lying wetlands.

Genealogists and local researchers will find several well-marked burial grounds, including Trinity Cem in the northwest and the centrally located Ohio Cem. To the east, the landscape features Porter Lake and the distinctively separated North Saint Johns Cem and South Saint Johns Cem. Small-scale aviation is represented by Zarn Airport, situated among the section roads and drainage basins that characterize this prairie-belt region.
