About this map

Franklin serves as the primary hub of this Robertson County landscape, where the street grid organizes around the central corridor of Carter St. The town is the junction for several rural routes, including the N Town Loop and N FM 46, which branch out into a terrain defined by subtle drainages like Wolf Den Br and Cedar Cr. To the northeast, the settlement of Easterly marks the edge of the survey, situated near Martin Lake and the headwaters of Mineral Cr.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites noted, including New Baden Cem and Hale Cem, which are tucked away along country roads like New Baden-Mt Pleasant Rd. The landscape is dotted with private water bodies such as Schultz Lake and Casey Lake, reflecting the agricultural character of the region. A dense network of named county roads, such as E Boones Prairie Rd and Walker Prairie Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads and creek crossings throughout the quadrangle.
