About this map

Milford Lake dominates this landscape in Geary County, its expansive waters filling the valley where Madison Creek and School Creek converge. The town of Milford sits on the eastern shore, a hub of local activity defined by its residential grid and the presence of the Milford Cemetery. The area’s history is anchored by significant landmarks like the Indian Grave Monument, which stands on a peninsula extending into the lake’s central reaches.

Local history and genealogy are preserved through several scattered burial grounds, including the Timber Creek Cemetery near the northern inlets and Branscom Cemetery further south. The map documents the boundary lines of Riley and Clay counties as they intersect the reservoir area, showing a network of rural roads such as Milford Cemetery Road and Lakeview Street that provide access to the waterfront and the surrounding agricultural uplands.
