2018 Map of Dana

About this map

Dana sits at the convergence of LaSalle, Livingston, and Woodford counties, serving as a quiet focal point in this 2018 survey of the Illinois prairie. The village is organized around Main St and W Monroe St, while the surrounding landscape is defined by the rectilinear grid of county roads and the winding paths of local waterways. Several burial grounds, including Bauman Cem and Saint Petri Evangelical Cem, are tucked between the sections, providing essential landmarks for genealogists and local historians. To the south, the small settlement of Spires marks the intersection of Co Rd 1950 N and Co Rd 3000 E. The drainage of the land is visible through the dendritic patterns of Long Point Cr, Mole Cr, and Diamond Cr, which interrupt the otherwise orderly agricultural sections.
