About this map

The Fox River carves a distinctive path through this suburban and marshland landscape, connecting a network of residential communities and glacial lakes at the meeting point of four counties. Established settlements such as Barrington, Cary, and Carpentersville anchor the region, while smaller villages like Fox River Grove and Port Barrington line the riverbanks. The geography is defined by its numerous water bodies, including the substantial Tower Lake complex with its uniquely named Devils Snake Island Island and Duck Island.

Genealogists and local historians will find several established burial grounds across the area, including Evergreen Cem and Saint Paul Cem in the southeast, and Windridge Cem further north. The map also reveals the preservation of natural spaces amidst residential growth, seen in the expansive Cotton Creek Marsh and recreational landmarks like the Ski Hill near the river. This survey details the modern road network, including N Rand Rd and W Cuba Rd, that connects these historic townships.
