2014 Map of Sutton

About this map

Sutton serves as the primary hub of activity on the border between Clay and Fillmore Counties, where a grid of local thoroughfares such as N Saunders Ave and E Maple St define the town's residential and commercial core. The surrounding prairie landscape is deeply agricultural, carved by the meandering paths of School Cr and the N Fork Turkey Cr. Genealogists will find interest in the documented locations of Sutton Cem to the north and Calvary Cem to the south, both situated near the community center. This 2014 survey documents the enduring importance of transit corridors like Us 6 and Road 116 which facilitate the movement of goods through this rural landscape. The map's detailed topography reveals the subtle drainage patterns that feed into Turkey Cr, illustrating the relationship between the flat upland fields and the natural watercourses that define the region's geography.
