1974 Map of Blandinsville
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The village of Blandinsville serves as the primary hub in this corner of McDonough County, surrounded by an organized grid of section lines and rural homesteads. The Toledo Peoria and Western railroad cuts a straight path across the prairie, linking the main settlement to the smaller community of Sciota and the Northwestern High Sch to the east. This landscape is defined by the transition from flat upland fields to the wooded drainages of the South Branch La Moine River and Baptist Creek. A notable specialized land use is the extensive Gas Storage Area south of Sciota, which occupies a significant portion of the subsurface rights in Hire and Emmet townships. For genealogists, the sheet is exceptionally detailed, noting numerous family and community burial grounds such as Liberty Cem, Anderson Cem, and Walker Cem.
