2024 Map of Tioga

About this map

Tioga and Breckenridge anchor this section of the Illinois prairie, where the landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of Bear Creek and its many tributaries. The area's history is etched into its small rural burial grounds, including West Tioga Cem, Bethany Cem, and Karnes Cem, which remain as quiet landmarks of the region's early community life. The terrain is notably dissected by watercourses like Whiteoak Creek and Little Creek, creating a network of ridges and hollows that contrast with the more level agricultural land found further from the creek banks.
