About this map

The Pecatonica River meanders across this rural landscape where the Illinois and Wisconsin borders meet, defining the drainage patterns of the surrounding farmland. This area is characterized by a dense network of local roads and named creek branches that serve as the primary landmarks for local history researchers. Major corridors like State Road 11 and State Road 78 intersect the terrain, providing a framework for the agricultural properties and homesteads scattered throughout the region.

Waterways like Turtle Cr, Spafford Creek, and the uniquely named Brown Br Spafford Cr carve through the section lines, indicating the natural topography that has influenced land use for generations. At the eastern edge, the street grid of a small settlement begins to appear near S Verley St, marking the transition from open fields to more concentrated community development near the intersection of Wi-176.
