2024 Map of La Moille
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
La Moille and Van Orin anchor this topographical study of north-central Illinois, situated right along the border of Lee Co and Bureau Co. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of Big Bureau Creek and its tributaries, including Pike Creek and Masters Fork. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful as it precisely locates numerous rural burial sites like Van Orin Repose Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Greenfield Cem, which are scattered throughout the agricultural sections. The local transport network is a mix of modern county highways and legacy routes like Old Chicago Rd. The transition between the prairie uplands and the creek valleys is clearly visible through the detailed contour work, illustrating the geographic character of this farming region.
