2012 Map of Winigan

About this map

Winigan and North Salem anchor this rural landscape in Linn County, where small agricultural hubs are connected by a network of local routes like Winigan Rd and Wichita Rd. The terrain is defined by the branching waterways of East Yellow Creek, Winigan Creek, and Mussel Fork, which shape the placement of historic farmsteads and rural infrastructure. A significant concentration of family and community burial grounds, including Bunch Cemetery, Pickerel Cemetery, and McCollum Cemetery, underscores the deep genealogical roots of the area. Further south, the community of Sedgwick is noted by the Sedgwick Post Office, while the Brantner Lake Dam indicates local water management efforts. This survey captures a quiet, established farming region where the drainage patterns of creeks like John Branch and Bull Branch remain the primary geographical influence on settlement.
