About this map

Vermillion and the nearby settlement of Vliets anchor this Marshall County landscape, where the Black Vermillion River and its numerous tributaries carve a branching network through the countryside. The township's history is written in its grid of section-line roads, such as Temple Rd and Sunflower Rd, and its local burial grounds including Vermillion Cem and Morrison Cem.

Surface drainage is particularly dense here, with the N Fork Black Vermillion River feeding into the main channel near the heart of the quadrangle. Further south, Irish Creek and the small Sullivan landmark suggest the rural character of the area outside the primary town centers. This survey captures the modern alignment of rural Marshall County as it appeared in the late 2010s, maintaining the agrarian footprint established by generations of local families.
