2012 Map of Tioga

About this map

Tioga and Breckenridge anchor this rural landscape in western Illinois, where a network of section roads connects isolated farmsteads and historic burial grounds. The area is defined by a dense drainage system including Bear Cr, Whiteoak Cr, and Lick Br, which carve through the agricultural fields of Adams County. Genealogists will find numerous small cemeteries preserved among the tracts, such as West Tioga Cem, Bethany Cem, and the remote Buckeye Cem in the north. The presence of Camp Saukenauk and the Hagemeister Landing Strip highlights modern recreational and private aviation uses of the land. This survey illustrates a resilient agrarian pattern where watercourses like Grindstone Cr and Little Cr dictate the placement of local routes like Co Rd-300 and E 1000th St.
