2014 Map of Laredo

About this map

Medicine Creek and its many tributaries, including Black Oak Br and N Fork Crooked Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Grundy County landscape. The settlement of Laredo serves as a local hub, while smaller clusters like Dunlap and the southern edge of Galt anchor the surrounding agricultural grid. This area is notably dense with small family and community burial grounds, which offer significant value for genealogical research. These include the Honey Creek Chapel Cemetery in the northwest, the Joab Holloway Cemetery to the east, and the Joseph Wright Cemetery near the center of the quadrangle. The terrain is a mix of creek bottoms and low ridges, with water features like Broyles Lake and Curtis Upper Lake punctuating the landscape between the established township and range lines.
