2018 Map of Girard

About this map

The Crawford County seat of Girard serves as the focal point of this 2018 survey, exhibiting a classic Midwestern grid with established neighborhoods bordering the Girard Cem. This region is defined by its watershed network, where Thunderbolt Cr and Second Cow Cr drain the undulating prairie landscape. To the north, the small settlement of Farlington sits near Frisco Lake and the upper reaches of W Fork Dry Wood Cr, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling Bone Creek Reservoir. The landscape is a mixture of agriculture and utility, as evidenced by the local aviation presence at Ziggy Carline Airport and the outlying community of Ringo. Researchers can trace the evolution of local burial grounds and infrastructure, including the rural Union Center Cem situated along the eastern drainage of Clear Cr.
