About this map

Marysville occupies the southeastern corner of this Union County landscape, where the street grid begins to expand into the surrounding agricultural terrain. The village of Raymond serves as a local hub to the northwest, situated near the intersection of Main St and Peoria Loop Rd. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads and small family cemeteries that testify to the long-standing settlement of the region, including Asbury Cem, Ford Cem, and Clark Cem.

Watercourses like Mill Creek and Blues Cr wind through the township, providing natural drainage for the farm fields. Smaller communities such as Peoria, Broadway, and Otter are connected by a web of township and county highways. The map details the transition from the concentrated development in Marysville to the rural expanses punctuated by historic churchyards and burial grounds like Mount Zion Cem and Hamilton Cem.
