About this map

Medicine Creek and its many tributaries, such as Black Oak Branch and North Fork Crooked Creek, define the landscape of eastern Grundy County. This area is characterized by a high density of small family and community burial grounds, providing an exceptional resource for genealogical research. Notable sites include Richardson Cemetery just east of Laredo, and the Joseph Wright Cemetery located near the Black Oak Cemetery.

Further north, the map documents the settlement of Dunlap and the larger Galt West Cemetery near the county line. The presence of numerous named drainages like Beckner Branch and Section Branch illustrates the intricate watershed system feeding into the larger creek valleys. Scattered water bodies like Broyles Lake and Curtis Upper Lake punctuate the agricultural land, while an extensive grid of secondary roads like Ne Geode LN and Se Chert LN connects these remote rural homesteads and historic sites.
