2015 Map of Johnstown

About this map

Johnstown and Trilla anchor the rural landscape of this 2015 Cumberland County survey, where the prairie topography is deeply incised by a dense network of watercourses. The drainage of Muddy Cr and its tributaries, including Bear Cr and Darkies Cr, dictates the placement of the region’s secondary roads and early homesteads. Genealogists will find a high concentration of small burial grounds scattered throughout the agricultural sections, including Higgins Cem, Drummond Cem, and the nearby Upper Berry Cem and Berry Cem. In the central portion of the map, the Cumberland Air Park RLA Airport sits near the small community of Neal, while to the east, Lake Louise provides a distinct water feature amidst the rolling terrain. The map also records the county boundary between Coles County and Cumberland County at its northern edge.
