2012 Map of Kent

About this map

Kent and the surrounding agricultural townships of Jo Daviess County appear as a network of rural roads and family dairy operations. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Plum River and the Muddy Plum River, which cut through the terrain near small settlements like Willow and Morseville. This 2012 survey illustrates the deep roots of the local community through its numerous burial grounds, including the Kent United Baptist Cem and Saint Pauls Lutheran Cem. Prominent local landmarks such as Simmons Mound stand out against a grid of established thoroughfares like E Morseville Rd and E Blackhawk Rd. The area also serves as a hub for regional aviation, featuring multiple landing strips including the Stockton Airport and John L Coppernoll Airport, reflecting the intersection of traditional farming and modern infrastructure.
