2020 Map of Miller

About this map

The community of Miller sits at the junction of several rural routes in southern Marengo County, serving as a focal point for a landscape defined by its creek bottoms and scattered family settlements. This 2020 survey documents the enduring layout of small crossroads like Rembert and Octagon, where small burial grounds such as Rembert Cem and Octagon Cem provide vital links for local genealogists. The topography is dominated by the complex drainage systems of Beaver Creek and Cane Cr, which wind through the township boundaries of T14N and T15N. Near the southern edge, the settlement of Sweet Water appears, while the area around Calvary is marked by numerous small tributaries like Mud Rush Cr and Little Beaver Cr. The map's detailed road network, including Bethlehem Church Rd and Rembert Hills Rd, reveals the historic connectivity between these isolated agrarian communities.
