About this map

The settlement of Lathrop serves as the primary hub of this 2012 survey, showing the grid-patterned streets of Park St, Pine St, and Elm St as they center the local community. The surrounding landscape of Clinton County is defined by the Grand River Loess Flats and Drift Hills, where a dense network of watercourses including Shoal Creek, Grindstone Creek, and the Muddy Fork carve through the agricultural terrain. To the south, the smaller settlement of Guyton sits near the crossing of these drainage patterns.

Water management and local history are evident in features like Lathrop Lake and Lake McGinness, which dot the northern half of the quadrangle. For those researching local lineages, the Bethel Cemetery is situated on the eastern edge of the survey area. The map illustrates a developed rural infrastructure, with a grid of county roads such as NE Breckenridge Rd and NE VanBuren Rd connecting the outlying farmsteads to the central townships.
