2024 Map of Galva
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Galva serves as a primary hub of settlement in this part of Henry County, situated at the intersection of a grid-iron road network and the upper reaches of the South Edwards River. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Goose Creek and Mud Run, which carve distinct paths through the agricultural countryside south of N 700th Ave. This map reveals the proximity of the historic Bishop Hill colony to the west, preserving the local geography surrounding the Bishop Hill Cemetery. Genealogists can also locate Saint Johns Cemetery and Galva Cemetery, while the presence of Trolly Road suggests the path of former transit lines that once connected these rural Illinois communities. The boundary line between Henry County and Knox County is clearly delineated across the southern section of the quadrangle.
