About this map

Galt sits at the southeastern corner of this Grundy County landscape, serving as the primary hub for a region defined by agricultural plots and winding watercourses. The terrain is intricately carved by Little Medicine Creek and the curiously named Big No Creek, along with its smaller tributaries like No Cr and Little No Cr. This network of streams is punctuated by several small reservoirs including Robert Russ Lake, Berry Lake, and Parr Lake.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of rural burial sites scattered across the townships, suggesting the locations of early settlement clusters. These include North Union Cem, Mount Zion Cem, McAfee Cem, Berry Cem, and Bolser Cem. A grid of rural routes such as State Hwy BB and numerous numbered roads like NE 90th St provide access to these remote family and community landmarks throughout the T62N and T63N ranges.
