1998 Map of Charleston North

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The northern reaches of Charleston anchor the southern edge of this late-twentieth-century landscape, where the prairie grid of Seven Hickory and Morgan townships is defined by agricultural precision and small crossroads settlements. Small communities like Fairgrange and Bushton serve as nodes in a network of section roads that follow the flat drainage of Flat Branch and Greasy Creek. The landscape is dotted with markers of local heritage, from the North Union Ch and Walnut Grove Ch to numerous burial grounds including Mound Cem, Roselawn Cem, and the more secluded Winkleblack Cem. The transition from the urban edge of the city to the rural expanses is evident near Cassel Creek, where residential areas and a Mobile Home Park give way to the open fields and drainage systems like the No 3 Drainage District that characterize the Coles County interior.
