1974 Map of Bardolph
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The village of Bardolph sits at the intersection of prairie topography and the Burlington Northern railroad, serving as a focal point for this section of McDonough County. The landscape is defined by the branching drainage patterns of Kepple Creek, Troublesome Creek, and the Fork La Moine River in the northwest, which carve intricate valleys into the surrounding farmland. These watercourses historically dictated the placement of early infrastructure, from the small settlement at Pennington Point to rural landmarks like Camp Creek Ch and the neighboring Townhall. Local aviation is represented by both the Macomb Clugston Airport and the Palmer Landing Strip, illustrating the evolution of transport in this agricultural region. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of the Mound Cem and School No 84, providing a clear spatial context for 20th-century rural life and community organization.
