USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
German Valley serves as a primary hub in this agricultural landscape straddling the Stephenson and Ogle County line. The map captures a transition in Midwestern rail history, showing the Illinois Central Gulf corridor cutting through the northern townships while the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific line traverses the southern portion near Adeline. This rail-dependent settlement pattern is further evidenced by smaller crossroads like Egan and Lightsville.
