1982 Map of Allerton
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Allerton and Broadlands anchor this early 1980s landscape, positioned along the straight transit line of the Missouri Pacific railroad. The geography is defined by the subtle drainage patterns of east-central Illinois, where the East Branch Embarras River and its accompanying Jordan Slu flow through the southern townships of Newman and Young America. To the north, the Little Vermilion River and the Little Vermilion Ditch mark the transition into South Homer and Jamaica. This survey reveals a high degree of agricultural organization, with rural school sites like Sch No 6 and the isolated Lost Grove Cem serving as landmarks within the grid. The intersection of three counties — Champaign, Vermilion, and Douglas — creates a complex jurisdictional patchwork across the settlements and agricultural fields of Ayers and Sidell.
