About this map

Poplar Grove and the surrounding rural townships of northern Boone County are defined by a grid of farm-to-market roads and the winding paths of several creeks. The Illinois-Wisconsin border serves as the northern boundary, with the settlement of Bergen situated directly along State Line Rd. The landscape is largely agricultural, punctuated by small crossroads communities like Blaine, Hunter, and Beaverton Crossroads, each maintaining its own distinct local identity.

Genealogists will find several historic burial grounds preserved among the fields, including Round Prairie Cem and Stone School Cem. The hydrological network is dominated by the branches of N Kinnikinnick Cr and Beaver Cr, which carve subtle paths through the terrain. Transportation in the area relies on a well-established network of named routes such as Hunter Rd and N Boone School Rd, reflecting the region's enduring commitment to its rural and educational foundations.
