2020 Map of Sweet Water

About this map

Sweet Water and Dixons Mills anchor this Marengo County landscape, reflecting a long-standing rural settlement pattern defined by creek-side communities and upland timber. The network of waterways, including Sweetwater Cr, Mill Cr, and Horse Cr, historically influenced the placement of towns like Vangale and Marengo. Genealogical value is abundant throughout the quadrangle, with numerous family and congregation sites such as Shiloh Primitive Baptist Church Cem, Union Grove Cem, and Paynes Chapel Methodist Cem.
