About this map

Springfield serves as the primary hub in this corner of Brown County, where the street grid of the town site is bounded by the Cottonwood River and the Springfield Municipal Airport. The landscape is defined by the drainage basins of both the Cottonwood River and the Little Cottonwood River, which wind through a predominantly agricultural region marked by sectional roads and county highways.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several rural burial sites, including Moravian Cemetery and Faith Cemetery, which reflect the early denominational settlement patterns of the area. Significant landmarks like the Springfield Post Office and Rothenburg Campground highlight the civic and recreational character of the community. In the southern portion of the map, the small settlement of Dotson sits near the banks of Mound Creek, while the expansive Reed Lakebed provides evidence of the region's shifting hydrological history.
