2022 Map of Grass Creek

About this map

Grass Creek serves as a central hub in this agricultural landscape where the borders of Fulton, Pulaski, and Cass counties converge. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, featuring named channels such as Sneep Gillespie Ditch, Prather Ditch, and Weasner Ditch that manage the headwaters of Indian Creek and Mill Creek. This 2022 survey reveals a rural fabric maintained through generations, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds including Mull Cemetery and Old Indian Creek Cemetery. Small-scale aviation is represented by Plummer Airport, while O'Brien Lake and various segments of Grassy Creek highlight the natural hydrology that persisted despite the widespread tiling and ditching of the surrounding farmland.
