About this map

The North Fork Vermilion River meanders across the northeast corner of this 1980s landscape, providing a natural drainage point for the surrounding prairie. This area of Ford and Livingston Counties is defined by its extensive agricultural infrastructure and civil divisions, including the rural townships of Brenton, Chatsworth, Germanville, and Lyman. The map details a sophisticated network of drainage efforts essential for Central Illinois farming, most notably the Wall Town Ditch which cuts through the southern sections. Local aviation and rural transport are represented by small, private facilities such as the Bradbury Landing Strip in the north and the Garrells Landing Strip further south. The proximity to local commerce is indicated by the Piper City Corp Bdy shown at the top of the sheet, reflecting the reach of small-town centers into the surrounding countryside.
