About this map

Apple River and its numerous tributaries, including Kentucky Cr and the W Fork Apple River, define the dissected topography of this Jo Daviess County landscape. The settlement of Millville serves as a central point, situated near the confluence of Clear Creek and the main river channel. The area's history is preserved in its rural burial grounds, such as Saint Joseph Cem in the northwest and Elmwood Cem to the northeast, alongside the Thompson Cem near the southern boundary. Rising above the river valleys, Benton Mound provides a significant topographic landmark in the southern half of the quadrangle. The map details a complex network of local roads like N Canyon Park Rd and E Twin Bridges Rd that follow the winding drainage patterns of Lilly Br and Rush Cr, reflecting the region's enduring agricultural and residential layout.
