1982 Map of Compton
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
Compton stands as a rail junction in the early 1980s, where the tracks of the Burlington Northern intersect with the Chicago and North Western lines. The surrounding landscape of northern Illinois is defined by a dense network of country roads named for local families and early townships, such as Stainbrook Road and Carnahan Road. This agricultural grid is punctuated by small rural settlements like The Burg and Roxbury, the latter situated near the confluence of several townships including Wyoming and Willow Creek.
