1919 Map of Winsor

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The Red Lake Indian Reservation dominates the northeastern landscape of this 1919 survey, where timbered tracts and marshy limits define the terrain. This era of northern Minnesota history is characterized by massive drainage projects, evidenced by a dense network of canals including Jud. Ditch No. 1 & No. 3, Judicial Ditch No. 4, and Ditch No. 109 that crisscross the townships. Small agrarian hubs like Winsor, Wanke, and Griebrok serve as focal points for local commerce and community, while the Saint Paul Minneapolis and Manitoba line provides critical transit through the southern portion. The map details the transition from natural watercourses like the Clearwater River and Lost River to an engineered agricultural landscape. Genealogists can find numerous Schools, Churches, and Cemeteries marking the locations of early 20th-century rural communities.
