About this map

Janesville anchors the northern portion of this map, appearing as a developed hub with its own Janesville Post Office and a grid of streets including N Main St and S Main St. The landscape south of town transitions into a rural agricultural pattern defined by the meandering Le Sueur River and the significant basin of Buffalo Lake. This water body is managed by the Buffalo Lake Dam, highlighting the managed nature of the local hydrography at the start of the 21st century.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds across the area, including Saint Anns Cemetery and Janesville Cemetery near the primary settlement, and the Alma City Cemetery situated near the smaller community of Alma City. The region's transport network is represented by a strictly surveyed grid of rural roads like County Hwy-14 and various numbered avenues, which delineate the township's layout.
