About this map

The settlement of Hooppole anchors this 2021 survey, situated along the county line where Whiteside Co meets Henry Co in northwestern Illinois. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, including the Main Union Special Ditch, Central Special Ditch, and Wildcat Ditch, which underscore the region's agricultural engineering. These watercourses redirect flow across a grid of rural roads such as Bishop Rd and N 3000th Ave.

Genealogists will find significant local landmarks including Leon Methodist Cem and Leon Methodist Ch at Leon Corners, along with Saint Marys Cem and the Hooppole Cem. Smaller rural nodes like Aliceville are documented alongside natural and man-made waterways like Keefer Br and the Big Slough Ditch, providing a clear look at the modern rural property divisions and community layout of the early twenty-first century.
