About this map

Morrison serves as the central hub of this Whiteside County landscape, showing the town's established grid and local infrastructure in the mid-1980s. To the north, Morrison-Rockwood State Park surrounds Lake Carlton, a significant recreational feature carved into the terrain of Clyde township. The map documents a mix of agricultural utility and mid-century leisure, evidenced by the Drive-In Theater located south of the main settlement and an Inactive Quarry near the town center. Small outlying communities like Malvern, Unionville, Round Grove, and Fenton are clearly marked, alongside numerous small Cem sites that provide valuable reference points for genealogists. Waterways like Rock Creek and French Creek define the drainage patterns of Mount Pleasant and Lyndon, illustrating the relationship between the prairie hydrology and the development of these Illinois townships.
