About this map

The Mills County Courthouse stands as a central landmark in Glenwood, a town defined by its hilly landscape and historic institutional sites. To the south of the town center, the Glenwood Resource Center Cem and Glenwood Cem occupy elevated positions above Keg Creek. The map reveals a high density of small family and institutional burial grounds, including the Bomar Family Cem and the Mills County Farm Cem, which reflect the long-standing agricultural and social history of the region.

North of the county seat, the terrain is carved by the drainages of Silver Creek and Waubonsie Cr. Small rural hubs like Silver City and the crossroads at Balfour and Hillsdale are connected by a grid of named roads such as Hershey Ave and Epperson Ave. The Wabash Trace Nature Trl follows a former rail corridor through the northeast, tracing the path of the area's transition from a railroad economy to a recreational landscape.
