About this map

Agricultural grid lines define the landscape around Woodworth, a small community in Iroquois County that serves as the focal point of this rural prairie survey. The map reveals a deeply rooted German Lutheran heritage, evident in the presence of Saint Paul Lutheran Cem near the town center and Saint Peter's Lutheran Cem to the north. These sites, along with the Schwer Cem in the neighboring settlement of Schwer, provide significant touchstones for genealogical research in the region.

The terrain is drained by the meandering paths of Shavetail Cr and Jefferson Cr, which break the geometric precision of the county road system. Transport and local infrastructure are represented by the Redeker Airport and the small hamlet of Bryce in the southeast corner. This map documents a stable, traditional farming landscape where small-scale settlements remain the primary anchors of community life.
