USGS Topo · Published 1923About this map
The Illinois and Mississippi Canal cuts a striking horizontal line across this Bureau County landscape, representing a critical era of inland navigation. To its south, the Chicago Burlington and Quincy RR and the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Ry create a dense corridors of rail transport, fueling the growth of towns like Buda, Wyanet, and Sheffield. The map is particularly rich in early 20th-century rural infrastructure, documenting dozens of named schoolhouses such as the Sisson School and Maple Grove School.
