2015 Map of East Lynn

About this map

East Lynn and the smaller hamlets of Hustle and Reilly anchor this rural landscape along the northern border of Vermilion County. The terrain is defined by a series of north-to-south watercourses including Whisky Cr, Fountain Cr, and Bluegrass Cr, which dictate the placement of local farmsteads and agricultural infrastructure. These creeks wind through a highly organized grid of rural roads such as N 1600 East Rd and 4100 N, reflecting the enduring township-and-range survey system. Genealogists will find the East Lynn Cem and Prairie Chapel Cem significant for tracing local family histories in this agricultural corridor. The map clearly illustrates the transition into Iroquois County at its northern edge, providing a precise look at the land use and property divisions within this part of the Illinois prairie during the mid-2010s.
