About this map

Augusta and Mt Sterling anchor this mid-century portrait of West-Central Illinois, where the borderlands of Hancock, Adams, Schuyler, and Brown counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the La Moine River and its tributaries like Flour Creek and Missouri Creek, which carve through the farmland. The Chicago Burlington and Quincy and Wabash railroads provide the primary industrial arteries, connecting small agricultural centers like Clayton, Huntsville, and La Prairie.
