2015 Map of Homer

About this map

The Salt Fork river winds through this portion of east-central Illinois, defining the rural landscape between Homer and Ogden. This 2015 survey illustrates a region where established agricultural settlements meet managed natural spaces, most notably at Homer Lake and the recreational waters of Timberlake Farms Lake. The map provides significant detail for genealogists and local historians, particularly within the village of Homer, where the Homer Grand Army of the Republic Cem serves as a notable landmark of the community's heritage. To the north, the corridor following Interstate 74 connects the town of Ogden with the smaller locale of Fithian across the Champaign and Vermilion county line. Outside the primary townships, features like the Wilson Airport and Bodkin Cem appear alongside a network of county roads, such as Lincoln Trail Rd and Catlin Homer Rd, which trace the legacy of early prairie transit routes.
