1986 Map of Woodworth

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Iroquois County is centered on small crossroads communities like Woodworth and Schwer in the mid-1980s. This survey, compiled from 1983 aerial photography, illustrates a highly organized grid of township boundaries including Ash Grove, Crescent, Belmont, and Milford. The terrain is defined by its subtle drainage patterns, where Shavetail Creek and Jefferson Creek meander through the flat prairie lands. Beyond the primary settlements, the map identifies specific landmarks like the Shave Tail area and a rural Landing Strip, alongside a high-altitude Radio Facility. Genealogists will find interest in the documented Cem and church locations that served these rural Illinois parishes, and the tiny hamlet of Bryce in the southeast corner. The map's layout reflects a classic Midwestern township system, showing the persistent rural character of the region before any significant modern expansion.
