About this map

The Kyte River meanders across this rural landscape, serving as a primary geographic anchor for the small settlements and agricultural plots of Ogle and Lee Counties. The village of Chana sits in the northwest, marked by its Po and a network of named roads including E Honey Creek Rd and S Chana Rd. The area is characterized by a mix of traditional farmsteads and modern residential clusters, such as Hickory Ridge and Frahms Country-Acres, which have developed near the eastern boundary.

Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped burial sites, including Cooley Cem, Flagg Center Cem, and Chapel Hill Cem, providing spatial context for local family histories. To the south, the settlement of Flagg and the Reinke Airport indicate the varied uses of the land. The road system, from the precisely named E Grist Mill Rd to E Husking Peg Rd, reflects the deep-rooted agricultural identity of this Illinois prairie region.
