==History==
The territory of Grant County was part of [[Morton County, North Dakota|Morton County]] until 1916. On November 7 the county voters determined that the SW portion of the county would be partitioned off to form a new county, to be named after [[Ulysses S. Grant]], the US President from 1869 to 1877. Accordingly, the county government was organized on November 28, with Carson as the seat. The county's boundaries have remained unchanged since its creation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://historical-county.newberry.org/website/North_Dakota/documents/DAKs_Individual_County_Chronologies.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071111113432/http://historical-county.newberry.org/website/North_Dakota/documents/DAKs_Individual_County_Chronologies.htm|dead-url=yes|archive-date=November 11, 2007|title=Dakota Territory, South Dakota, and North Dakota: Individual County Chronologies|accessdate=February 19, 2019|last=Long|first=John H.|year=2006|work=Dakota Territory Atlas of Historical County Boundaries|publisher=The [[Newberry Library]]}}</ref><ref>[http://www.solbergfarms.com/MortonCoDivCertificate.htm Certification of the division of Morton County, ND 28 November 1916]{{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080703161958/http://www.solbergfarms.com/MortonCoDivCertificate.htm|date=July 3, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nd.gov/content.htm?parentCatID=83&id=County%20History|title=County History|work=North Dakota.gov|publisher=The State of North Dakota|accessdate=February 19, 2019}}</ref>

Grant County is a county in the U.S. state of North Dakota. As of the 2020 census, the population was 2,301.[1] Its county seat is Carson.[2]

History

[edit]

The territory of Grant County was part of Morton County until 1916. On November 7 the county voters determined that the SW portion of the county would be partitioned off to form a new county, to be named after Ulysses S. Grant, the US President from 1869 to 1877. Accordingly, the county government was organized on November 28, with Carson as the seat. The county's boundaries have remained unchanged since its creation.[3][4][5]

Geography

[edit]
Heart Butte is a prominent geographic feature in Grant County, and the namesake for the nearby Heart Butte Dam.

The Heart River flows eastward through the upper part of Grant County, and Cedar Creek flows east-northeastward along the county's southern boundary line. The county terrain consists of isolated hills among rolling hills, carved by drainages. The semi-arid ground is partially devoted to agriculture.[6] The terrain slopes to the east and south; its highest point is a rise near its southwestern corner, at 2,680 ft (820 m) ASL.[7] The county has a total area of 1,666 square miles (4,310 km2), of which 1,659 square miles (4,300 km2) is land and 6.8 square miles (18 km2) (0.4%) is water.[8] Lake Tschida, a Bureau of Reclamation reservoir and recreation area on the Heart River, is the county's largest body of water.[9]

The southwestern corner of North Dakota observes Mountain Time (Adams, Billings, Bowman, Golden Valley, Grant, Hettinger, Slope, and Stark counties). The counties of McKenzie, Dunn, and Sioux counties are split, with the western portions of each observing Mountain Time.
