About this map

Apple River sits just south of the border separating Jo Daviess County, Illinois, and Lafayette County, Wisconsin. This landscape is defined by the winding course of the Pecatonica River and its numerous tributaries, including Wolf Cr and Copper Cr. The village of Gratiot serves as a northern anchor in Wisconsin, situated near the Gratiot Cem.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-placed landmarks, such as Highland Cem near the state line and Kingsley Cem further north. The map details a network of rural routes like Dunbarton Rd and White School Rd, which crisscross the rolling terrain. The proximity of Riverside to the river's edge highlights the historical importance of these waterways for early settlement and regional connectivity between the two states.
