About this map

Agricultural patterns and small rural settlements define this section of Republic County in the early 21st century. The map is anchored by the eastern edge of Belleville and the rural community of Tabor, illustrating a landscape dominated by a grid of county roads. These thoroughfares, such as Nickel Rd and Co Rd K, segment the terrain into large tracts of farmland.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, including Saint Georges Cemetery, Tabor Cemetery, Saint Katherine Cemetery, and Pleasant Hill Cemetery, which serve as quiet markers of the area's family history. The drainage network is clearly defined by several waterways like Salt Creek and Coal Creek, which wind through the township. A distinctive modern landmark, the Pachta Farm Airport, reflects the continued importance of private aviation in the regional farming economy.
