2018 Map of Hammond

About this map

The Piatt Co Moultrie Co border bisects this central Illinois landscape, where the village of Hammond serves as a primary local hub. The agricultural character of the region is defined by a rigorous grid of section roads and drainage systems like Ditch Number 4 and the Hammond Mutual Ditch, which manage the prairie terrain. Smaller points of settlement include Voorhies to the north and Pierson and Lanton to the south, reflecting the historical distribution of rural communities. The map also features Hammond Cem and the small Adkisson Airport, which along with the Lake Fork in the northeast, provide specific landmarks for local historians and genealogists tracing family roots in these adjacent counties.
