The agrarian landscape of Shelby County is defined here by the winding course of Richland Creek and its many tributaries, which carve through the grid of section lines and rural roads. This 2024 survey captures the established settlements of Stewardson in the southeast and Strasburg in the northeast, alongside smaller locales like Mode and Clarksburg. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting several rural burial sites that serve as anchors for local history, including Union Cem, Graybill Cem, and Rockford Cem.
