2010 Map of Lowell

About this map

The Skunk River meanders through this landscape, defining the character of the settlement at Lowell and its surrounding agricultural terrain. This area is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, providing a significant resource for genealogists researching names like Abbe Cemetery, Pickle Cemetery, and Bentler Farm Cemetery. The river's path is joined by several tributaries, including Big Creek and Mud Creek, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the waters of Geode Lake. The rural road network, including historic routes like Salem Rd and Agency Rd, connects these scattered settlements and farmsteads. Smaller water features like Lake Wilderness and the drainage of Hell Hollow punctuate the grid of section lines, reflecting a landscape where water management and traditional farming have long coexisted.
