2020 Map of Woburn

About this map

Woburn sits amidst the characteristic prairie pothole terrain of Burke County, where a dense network of small wetlands and depressions defines the rural landscape. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural grid of the northern plains, marked by section lines and gravel routes like Co Rd 4 and Co Rd 8. Family history and early community ties are anchored by local landmarks such as the Dale Lutheran Cem in the northwest and Zion Cem in the southeast corner. Small drainage patterns, including Stony Creek and the E Br Short Cr, provide the primary relief in an otherwise subtle topography. The map documents the enduring layout of township and range lines, such as t162n r91w, which have governed land division in this region since settlement.
