2024 Map of Fisher

About this map

The Sangamon River meanders through the heart of this central Illinois landscape, defining the topography around the village of Fisher. The river's corridor is marked by a series of distinct drainage features including Dickerson Slough, Wildcat Slough, and Hillsbury Slough, reflecting the natural hydrology of the Champaign County prairie. For genealogists and local historians, several burial sites are documented across the rural townships, including Willowbrook Cem just south of Fisher, Beekman Cem, and the Knife Cem located near the southern boundary. The settlement of Dewey sits to the east, connected to the larger community by a grid of county roads such as Co RD 3000 N. This 2024 data showcases a landscape where modern infrastructure like Greenwood Lake exists alongside the long-established agricultural grid and the complex, winding path of the river and its many ditches.
