About this map

Urbana and its northern surroundings in Champaign County are defined by the broad valley of the Mad River, where a network of tributary creeks like Anderson Cr and Muddy Cr carve through the agricultural landscape. The township structure is clearly marked, with the map recording several small crossroads communities including Northville, Lippincott, and Eris. At the southern edge, the municipal layout of Urbana transitions into the open grounds of Grimes Field, reflecting the area's continued role as a regional hub.

For genealogists and local historians, this survey provides the precise locations of numerous small burial grounds that dot the countryside, such as Kenton Memorial Cem, Wesley Chapel Cem, and Snowhill Cem. The proximity of West Liberty at the northern Logan County line further illustrates the connectivity between these rural townships, linked by historic routes like the Woodville Pike and Millerstown Rd.
