2013 Map of Lourdes

About this map

Lourdes and Davis Corners anchor this rural Howard County landscape, which is defined by a systematic grid of agricultural roads and the meandering path of the Turkey River. The river's reach is further detailed by its named forks, including the W Br Turkey River in the northeast and the S Br Turkey River in the southeast. Named agricultural sites such as Caffrey Farm and Ludwig Farm provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local land ownership. This survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region in the early 21st century, where large-scale farming remains the primary economic driver. A network of arterial routes like Crane Creek Rd and Lourdes Rd connects these isolated farmsteads to the crossroads settlements that have served the community for generations.
