2010 Map of Albany

About this map

Albany sits as the central hub of this Green County landscape, where the Sugar River and the Little Sugar River converge. The waterway is punctuated by the Albany Dam near the town center and the Brodhead Dam further downstream on Decatur Lake, reflecting the region's historical reliance on river power. This 2010 survey illustrates a mix of agricultural land and recreational corridors, notably the Sugar River State Trl, which follows the path of a former rail line through the river valley. For those researching local family history, several burial grounds are documented, including Hillcrest Cemetery near the village and the more isolated Moores Cemetery to the southwest. The presence of Mineral Point and family-named roads like Dunphy Rd and Peebles Rd points to long-standing rural settlements and early land ownership patterns that have persisted into the 21st century.
