About this map

The Mississippi River dominates this 2010 landscape, where the braided channels and numerous islands define the border region between Illinois and Iowa. Large river features like Ninemile Island and Island 233 are surrounded by smaller waterways such as Deadman Slough and Frentress Lake, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Upper Mississippi. On the Illinois side, the settlement of Menominee sits at the northern edge of the quadrangle, while smaller clusters like Shawondasse and Massey occupy the riverfront.

Genealogists and local historians can find several significant burial sites and rural markers, including Preston Cemetery and Saint Catherines Cemetery. The map also documents the transition from agriculture to recreation and transit, noting the Massey Marina Campgrounds and the Coursens Landing Airport. Tributaries like the Menominee River, Little Menominee River, and Sinsinawa River flow toward the main river valley, carving out distinctive terrain such as Whisky Hollow.
