2021 Map of Maryknoll

About this map

Lincoln County and St. Charles County meet at the winding course of the Cuivre River, a landscape defined by its floodplains and transition from prairie to river valley. The settlement at Chain of Rocks overlooks the river's path, while the surrounding interior features small communities like Ethlyn and Maryknoll. This 2021 survey shows a complex network of agricultural lands and increasing residential developments such as Fountain N' Lakes. Local heritage is anchored by dispersed burial grounds including Rybolt Cem, Admire Cem, and Highland Prairie Cem. Significant water features like Bobs Cr and Brushy Fork drain the northern uplands, while the Blackhawk Airport and proximity to Old Monroe and Winfield indicate the area's role as a modern rural hub. The map provides a clear look at the region's diverse topography, from the flat reaches of Highland Prairie to the intricate creeks of the river basin.
