The Blue Mound Hills and Fairview Mounds define the landscape of northern Carroll County, where a dense network of rural schools once anchored the local community. This 1950 topographic survey, compiled in part from 1939 aerial photography, reveals the settlement pattern of Coloma and the surrounding townships just after the war. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, identifying numerous local institutions such as New Salem Ch, Rush Chapel, and a remarkable number of named schoolhouses including Locust Sch, Franklin Sch, and Wooden Sch.
