About this map

Bureau County farmland dominates this landscape, defined by a rigid grid of rural roads and the meandering paths of its drainage network. Small family burial grounds and community cemeteries are scattered across the township, including the Aldrich Family Cem, Roggy Cem, and Sapp Cem. These sites, alongside Corss Cem and Heatons Point Cem, provide essential anchor points for genealogists tracing early families in the region. The natural geography is shaped by the confluence of several waterways, most notably West Bureau Creek and Maple Grove Creek, which flow toward Big Bureau Creek in the southeast. While the modern road network follows section lines with names like Wyanet Walnut Rd and Backbone Rd, the map still clearly shows the riparian corridors and small water bodies like Krause Pond that have long influenced local land use and settlement patterns.
