1953 Map of Bevier South

About this map

Bevier and its surrounding coal-rich landscape dominate this survey, which captures the industrial character of southern Macon County during the mid-20th century. The map reveals an extensive network of extractive industry, with numerous Strip Mine operations and mine sites scattered between the rural settlements of Keota, Ardmore, and Binkley. The local economy is further illustrated by the presence of the Bevier and Southern and Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroads, which facilitated the movement of goods through the region.
