2024 Map of Riley
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Coon Creek and Spring Creek define the drainage of this northern Illinois agricultural landscape at the meeting point of Boone, McHenry, and DeKalb counties. The settlement of Riley and the outskirts of Marengo anchor the region, which is characterized by a dense grid of rural roads and scattered aviation facilities including Walpole Airport, Wind Rose Farm Airport, and Idlas Airport. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of local burial sites, such as Barber Cem near the creek, Ney Cem, and the North Kingston Cem in the southwestern corner. The map illustrates a modern infrastructure of interstate highways and county lines cutting across a historic farming interior, where landmarks like Boone Co McHenry Co Line Rd follow long-established jurisdictional boundaries.
