About this map

Winslow and Lena anchor the northern and southern reaches of this Stephenson County landscape, where the rolling agricultural terrain is dissected by a network of waterways including the Pecatonica River, Waddams Cr, and Indian Cr. The map centers on the recreation and conservation area of Lake Le-Aqua-Na, a significant geographic focal point between the two primary settlements.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites throughout the townships, such as Christian Hollow Cem, Saint Joseph Cem, and Crossroads Cem, which reflect the long-standing rural community structure. Transportation is defined by a traditional grid of county roads like W Galena Rd and N Winslow Rd, while small local aviation hubs like Kramer Airport and Mitek Airport serve the surrounding farmland. The presence of named fields like Red Shed Field adds a layer of specific local nomenclature to the larger surveyed sections of the Driftless Area.
