About this map

The Fox River carves a significant corridor through this portion of Kendall County, serving as the central geographic feature for the surrounding communities of Yorkville and Bristol. Along its banks, the Glen D Palmer State Game Farm and Saw-Wee-Kee Park indicate a landscape heavily dedicated to conservation and public recreation. The terrain of Rob Roy and the winding course of Blackberry Creek define the local topography, while numerous family and community burial grounds, including St Patricks Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and Jericho Cem, provide essential data points for local genealogists.

Transportation patterns are dominated by historic routes like Galena Road and Cannonball Road, which cut across the agricultural grid. This survey captures a moment of balance between established rural homesteads and the creeping corporate boundaries of Montgomery and Sugar Grove to the northeast. Notable landmarks like the local High Sch and Library in Yorkville anchor the civic life of the river valley during the early 1990s.
