2015 Map of Grand River

About this map

Grand River serves as the primary hub of this rural landscape, situated near the meandering path of the Thompson River. The area is defined by a dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, providing a significant resource for genealogical research. These include the Grand River Cem south of town, and the more secluded Old Funk Cem and Oak Hill Cem to the east. The terrain is deeply carved by several waterways, with Sand Cr, Short Cr, and Elk Cr cutting through the countryside, influencing the layout of the local road network. The map reveals a transition from the town's grid of streets, like W 4th St, to the winding rural routes that follow the ridges and valleys between these many creeks.
