2024 Map of Douglas East

About this map

Trinity Lutheran Cem sits at the northern edge of this McLean County landscape, marking a point of long-standing community heritage near the Ward County line. The terrain is defined by a dense network of prairie potholes and wetlands characteristic of the northern plains, featuring prominent water bodies such as Bartons Lake and Shallow Alkali Lake. The McLean County Waterfowl Production Area preserves a significant portion of this lacustrine environment, highlighting the area's role in the regional ecosystem. The drainage of Middle Branch Douglas Creek winds through the western sections, while a grid of local routes like McLean Co Hwy 2 and Co Hwy 15 provides the primary infrastructure for this agricultural and conservation-focused region. This survey captures the modern intersection of wildlife management and rural cemetery preservation.
