USGS Topo · Published 1946About this map
Ashley and Radom serve as central nodes for this Southern Illinois landscape in the mid-1940s, where an exceptionally dense network of rural schoolhouses and churches defined the social geography. Named landmarks like the Blissville Polling House and the I. C. R. R. Reservoir near Ashley point to a community structured around both civil participation and the essential steam-era needs of the Illinois Central railroad.
