1949 Map of Bantry

About this map

The small town of Bantry sits at the northern edge of this McHenry County landscape, defined by its position along the Burlington Northern railroad line. This survey, mapped originally in 1949 and later updated in the early 1980s, captures a rural prairie environment organized by the townships of Bantry and Wagar. The map documents the persistent agricultural infrastructure of the region, including scattered windmills and the Pipeline corridor that cuts diagonally across the southern sections.
