About this map

Apple River and its various tributaries, including the W Fork Apple River and S Fork Apple River, carve through the rolling landscape of Jo Daviess County. This northern Illinois region is defined by a network of rural roads such as E Stagecoach Trl and N Slaughter House Rd, which connect scattered homesteads and local landmarks. The small settlement of Millville serves as a central point, flanked by the Millville Cem and recreation spots like Devils Hollow Picnic Area.

Genealogists can find several historic burial sites, including Saint Joseph Cem, Elmwood Cem, and Thompson Cem. The terrain is punctuated by significant natural features like Benton Mound and numerous drainages like Lilly Br and Coon Cr. The presence of the Walnut Grove Youth Group Camping Area and Canyon Ridge Camping Area highlights the area's ongoing use for conservation and outdoor recreation in the early 21st century.
