2015 Map of Piper City NE

About this map

The agricultural plains of the Kankakee-Iroquois borderland are defined by a rigid grid of country roads and drainage patterns in this 2015 survey. The northern reaches of Kankakee Co and the adjacent Iroquois Co are marked by large-scale farming plots, with Milk's Grove Cem standing as a primary point of genealogical interest for local families. The landscape is primarily flat, broken only by the gentle course of Langan Cr in the southeast and the small private airstrip at Berns Airport. This map illustrates the modern continuity of Illinois prairie farming, where the section-line roads like East 3400 N Rd and North 500 E Rd serve as the primary infrastructure for the rural community.
