2024 Map of Sublette

About this map

The village of Sublette sits at the intersection of US Rte 52 and Co Hwy 12, serving as a central point for this agricultural region on the border of Lee and LaSalle Counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of local roads such as Shady Oaks Rd and Tower Rd that connect isolated farmsteads and rural landmarks. Several burial grounds, including Saint Marys Cem and Evergreen Cem near Sublette, along with Inlet Cem to the north and Union Cem near West Brooklyn, offer significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. Natural drainage is shaped by Green River in the northwest and Big Bureau Creek in the south, while the Delhotal Airport provides a small aviation footprint amidst the fields. This contemporary survey captures the enduring settlement patterns of northern Illinois, from the clustered homes in Shaws to the established grid of the larger villages.
