About this map

The Sangamon River meanders across the southern portion of this landscape, anchoring a network of tributaries including Wildcat Cr and Goose Cr. This 2018 survey reveals the rural character of the region, where the borders of De Witt and Piatt counties meet. Small agricultural settlements like De Land, Cisco, and Weldon are connected by a precise grid of county roads and historic routes such as Co Hwy 5 and Old Route 47.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Kentucky Cem and trace the development of smaller locales like Amenia. The terrain is marked by distinct water features including Arrowhead Lake and Four-H Lake, while aviation history is represented by the Flying Illini Airport. The drainage patterns, represented by features like the Friends Cr Ditch, highlight the region's managed agricultural landscape.
