2013 Map of Medford East

About this map

The Straight River corridor defines the western edge of this landscape, where the settlements of Medford and Clinton Falls sit along the riverbanks. Moving eastward across the county line between Rice and Steele, the terrain transitions into a patchwork of rural farmland and tributary systems, including the headwaters of the N Fork Zumbro River near Walcott. The map reveals a high density of early burial grounds that serve as vital markers for local family history, ranging from the Union Cem on the western bluffs to the Richland Cem and Eklund Cem further east.
