2017 Map of Laredo

About this map

Medicine Creek and its many tributaries, including Black Oak Br and N Fork Crooked Cr, define the agricultural landscape of eastern Grundy County. This modern topographic survey illustrates a rural region centered on the small settlements of Laredo and Dunlap, with the outskirts of Galt appearing in the northeast corner. The map is particularly valuable for genealogists and local historians, as it meticulously identifies numerous small family and community burial grounds that dot the countryside, such as the Honey Creek Chapel Cem, Rural Dale Cem, and Joab Holloway Cem. The terrain is characterized by the watershed of Little Medicine Creek and Honey Creek, where the road network follows a strict sectional grid interrupted only by the meandering stream beds and the waters of Broyles Lake and Curtis Upper Lake.
