About this map

Dixon Springs and the surrounding southern Illinois townships of Eddyville, Alexander, and Columbus characterize this rural landscape surveyed shortly before the United States entered the Great War. The territory is defined by a high density of country schools, including Allard College School, Sulphur Spring School, and Point Pleasant School, reflecting a period when education was deeply localized. The Illinois Central railroad cuts through the terrain, serving small depots and post offices like Dixon Springs Sta (Renshaw P.O.) and Big Bay (McNoel P.O.).
