2015 Map of Gilman

About this map

The village of Gilman serves as the central hub of this Taylor County landscape, where the Yellow River and Fisher River drainage basins define the geography. The area's agricultural and rural character is punctuated by several managed water bodies, including Witt Flowage, Sotak Flowage, and a series of numbered reservoirs like Flowage Number One. For those researching local families, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds concentrated near the settlements, such as the Meadowbrook Cem and the Hannibal Cem further north. The settlement of Polley sits south of Gilman, linked by a grid of rural roads including Gilman Dr and Hines RD. The presence of distinct Lutheran and Catholic cemeteries south of the village highlights the cultural and denominational heritage that shaped the community's early development and social organization.
