2015 Map of Bunker Hill

About this map

North Fabius River and its numerous tributaries, including Batten Branch and Brush Creek, carve a rolling landscape across the border of Iowa and Missouri. This modern record of the area shows a pattern of rural settlement defined by small crossroads like Lunsford and Bunker Hill, alongside larger communities such as Savannah. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting numerous family and community burial grounds including Bridwell Cemetery, Howell Cemetery, New Zion Cemetery, and Walker Chapel Cemetery. Infrastructure is primarily agricultural, evidenced by the Newcomb Hereford Ranch Airport and a network of secondary roads such as Hale School Road and Sanchez Road. In the southeast, Lancaster City Lake and the Downing Reservoir stand as key water management features in this river-valley terrain.
