2012 Map of Dennison

About this map

Dennison and McKeen stand as central points in this landscape where the Illinois border meets Indiana. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Clear Cr, Hawks Cr, and Crooked Cr, which drain toward the Wabash River in the southeast. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in burial sites such as Cumberland Cem and Farris Cem, while the settlement of State Line anchors the eastern edge of the quadrangle. The survey reveals a rural infrastructure of named country roads and small clusters of buildings at Ferrel and Patton, reflecting a long-standing agricultural pattern. Small bodies of water like Kieweg Lake and Windemere Lake are interspersed among the drainages, showing how local hydrology has been utilized for recreation or water management in this borderland corridor.
