2010 Map of North Lewisburg

About this map

North Lewisburg and the nearby village of Woodstock anchor this agricultural landscape in Champaign County. The terrain is defined by the drainage networks of Big Darby Creek and Spain Creek, which are surrounded by a dense grid of rural township and county roads. Evidence of early settlement patterns is visible in the numerous small family and community burial grounds, such as Quaker Cemetery and Butcher Cemetery, that dot the countryside. Near the center of the sheet, the recreational area of Fountain Park and the waters of Brush Lake offer local landmarks amidst the fields. The map also captures the smaller hamlet of Middletown, connected by a network including Urbana Woodstock Pike and Mingo Lewisburg Rd. This survey documents the persistent rural character of the region, where the North Lewisburg Post Office remains a central point of civic identity for the surrounding farmstead community.
