2012 Map of Lena

About this map

The Pecatonica River winds through the northern landscape of this Stephenson County region, where the villages of Winslow and Lena serve as primary hubs of activity. This 2012 survey illustrates a pastoral agricultural corridor defined by a high density of rural cemeteries, including Christian Hollow Cem, Waite Cem, and Manny Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. The region's transport and aviation history is reflected in several small-scale facilities such as the Lena Flying Club Landing Field, Red Shed Field Airport, and Kramer Airport, scattered among the drainages of Waddams Cr and Indian Cr. Local infrastructure is marked by landmarks like the Lena Water Tower, while named agricultural sites such as Twelve Oaks Farm highlight the established farming character of the area near the intersections of W Main St and W Railroad St.
