2014 Map of Grafton

About this map

Grafton sits along the southern edge of this landscape, positioned along Us-6 and defined by a rigid grid of agricultural roads that span the border of York and Fillmore Counties. The terrain is characterized by the meandering drainage systems of the West Fork Big Blue River and its tributaries, including Elk Run and School Cr. In the northern section, the small settlement of Lushton remains a focal point of the local geography, surrounded by extensive fields. Local history and genealogy are anchored by landmarks such as Greenwood Cem and Lushton Cem, while water management is evidenced by the presence of Stuckey Reservoir. The map illustrates a contemporary rural environment where historical settlement patterns persist through these established towns and cemeteries amidst a highly organized section-line road network.
