2024 Map of Rushville North

About this map

The rolling agricultural landscape of northern Schuyler County is defined by the headwaters of numerous creeks, including West Branch Sugar Creek and Brushy Creek. The settlement of Littleton anchors the northwest, while the northern edge of Rushville enters the frame at the southern margin. This area is notably dense with small family and community burial grounds, providing a significant resource for genealogical research. Documented sites include Littleton Cem, Bauer Cem, Sugar Grove Cem, and Moore Cem, often situated near the breaks of the many timbered draws. A complex network of rural routes like Log Cabin Rd and Moore Chapel Rd connects these points across the dissected terrain, illustrating a persistent pattern of rural habitation. The northeast corner is marked by Oakland Center, while water features like Gill Lake and Richie Branch drain the central valleys.
