2022 Map of Milroy

About this map

Milroy serves as the primary hub of this agricultural landscape in Redwood County, situated at the intersection of Cherry St and Superior St. The town is surrounded by a network of rural roads such as Lyon Redwood Rd and Camp Ave, which delineate the expansive farmlands of southwestern Minnesota. The hydrography of the region is defined by the Redwood River in the north and meandering streams like Sleepy Eye Cr and Clear Cr in the southeast. Significant modifications to the natural drainage are evident through features like County Ditch Number Ninetythree and Judicial Ditch Number Fourteen and Fifteen, illustrating the intensive water management required for prairie agriculture. Genealogists will find the area’s history preserved in several local burial grounds, including the Danish Cem, Saint Johns Cem, Our Saviors Cem, and Saint Michael Cem. The northern portion of the map also highlights the small-scale aviation presence at Lightfoot Farms Airport.
