About this map

Ahola Cem sits within the rural prairie landscape of Burleigh County, serving as a primary point of interest for genealogists and local historians researching the early families of this North Dakota region. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the East Branch Apple Creek, which meanders through the central and western portions of the quadrangle. This watercourse, along with Rice Lake in the southern sections, likely influenced the development of the early road network, which follows a rigid section-line grid including 314th St NE and 227th Ave NE. The presence of these named water bodies and the isolated cemetery highlights the sparse, agricultural nature of the settlement pattern in the townships of T142N R76W and T141N R76W during the early 21st century.
