2024 Map of Colfax
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The agricultural landscape of eastern McLean County is defined by the headwaters of the Mackinaw River and its tributaries, which carve subtle relief into the prairie. The village of Colfax serves as the primary hub, showing a grid of residential streets like E Main St and S Grove St north of the river. To the east, the smaller settlement of Anchor sits near the Anchor Township Cem, maintaining its identity amidst a sprawling network of section roads. This survey records the persistent rural character of the region, where family history is anchored by localized landmarks such as Antioch Cem and Fairview Cem. The drainage patterns of Henline Creek and Colfax Creek illustrate the natural topography that dictated early farm placement and road alignments long before modern paving followed these historic township lines.
