1983 Map of Mount Morris
USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Mount Morris sits at the center of this Ogle County landscape, serving as a hub for a network of country roads like Adeline Road and Mt Morris Road that connect the surrounding farmsteads. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Leaf River to the north and Pine Creek to the south, with the Oregon Trail cutting through the southeastern corner. This survey documents the intersection of rail and aviation in the early 1980s, featuring the Burlington Northern line and small local airfields such as Nick Lung Airport and Barnett Memorial Airport. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial sites, including Oak Wood Cem, Plainview Cem, and Cedar Hill Cem, which preserve the names of early family settlements across the Maryland and Mount Morris townships.
