About this map

The village of Winnebago and the western edge of Rockford anchor this 2021 survey of northern Illinois. The landscape transitions from the urban density of Westmoreland to a grid of agricultural land and suburban expansion marked by historical burial grounds like North Burritt Union Cem and Calvary Cem. Small aviation hubs, including Early Merkel Field and LZ Fairwinds Airport, are scattered across the terrain, reflecting the modern utility of the open fields outside the city core.

The hydrological network is defined by the branches of Kent Creek, with N Fork Kent Cr and S Fork Kent Cr cutting through the center of the sheet. Local roads such as Trask Bridge Rd and Kilburn Ave serve as primary corridors through the countryside, connecting smaller settlements like Wempletown to the larger regional centers. For those tracing the evolution of Winnebago County, the map provides precise locations for cemeteries and landmarks like Levings Lake that have long served as local community anchors.
