2022 Map of Brighton
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The Brighton town site serves as the focal point of this rural landscape, situated just north of the county line between Washington County and Jefferson County. The Skunk River carves a winding path through the center of the sheet, joined by tributaries such as Indian Creek and Burr Oak Creek. This area of Iowa is characterized by its organized grid of secondary roads, including Ginkgo Avenue and Ivy Avenue, which connect scattered agricultural lands and several family-named cemeteries. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating burial grounds like Hillcrest Cemetery on the edge of town, Sandy Hook Cemetery near the river, and Saint Josephs Cemetery to the south. Recreational corridors such as the Brinton Timber Trails Trail and Wallrich Lake illustrate the intersection of modern land use with these long-standing farming communities.
