About this map

The village of Grantfork and the northern reaches of Highland anchor this Madison County landscape, where the prairie is defined by the winding course of East Fork Silver Creek and Highland Silver Lake. This modern survey reveals a dense network of family and community history, preserving the locations of numerous burial grounds such as Mundis Cem, Holtzgang Cem, and the Grantfork United Church of Christ Cem.

Hydrological features dominate the central terrain, from the Old City Reservoir to the varied branches of Sand Cr and Sugar Fork. Aviation history is represented by the Highland-Winet Airport, while the local rural economy is traced through roads like Steinkoenig School Rd, hinting at the legacy of early educational districts. The map documents a blend of established municipal growth and traditional rural land use south of the Madison County line.
