About this map

Sylvan Grove sits at the southern edge of this landscape, positioned along the northern bank of the Saline River. The town's grid is clearly defined by streets such as N Ohio Ave and N Indiana Ave, leading toward the community's legacy sites like the Sylvan Grove City Cem and Bethlehem Lutheran Cem. The surrounding terrain is shaped by the drainage patterns of Wolf Creek and Blue Stem Cr, which carve through the plains of Lincoln County and Russell County.

Evidence of early rural organization remains in the scattered burial grounds like Rosette Cem and the small-scale aviation facility at Vonada Airport. The transportation network reflects a mix of modern and older alignments, with Old Hwy 18 and W Old Highway 18 tracing the corridor north of the river. This survey captures the transition from the river valley to the upland sections of T11S and T12S.
