About this map

Oil Center and the village of Stoy are prominent features in this portion of Crawford County, reflecting the region's historical ties to petroleum production. The landscape is a structured grid of rural roads, such as E 800th Ave and N 400th St, that connect scattered settlements like Hardinville and Villas. The terrain is deeply influenced by the local drainage systems, including Little Cr, Painter Fork, and the Embarras River winding across the southern boundary.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds preserved here, including Hardinville Cem, Prior Grove Cem, Jones Cem, and Richart Cem. These family and community landmarks, often located along quiet secondary roads, provide essential touchpoints for tracing local lineages within this agricultural and industrial landscape. The proximity to Robinson at the northeastern edge suggests the transition from rural townships to the larger county seat.
