1998 Map of Dalton City
USGS Topo · Published 2003About this map
Dalton City anchors this central Illinois landscape, serving as a focal point where the agricultural grid of Dora and Milam townships meet. The map reveals a drainage pattern defined by the southward flow of Big Creek, Marrowbone Creek, and Brush Creek, which carve gentle relief into the prairie. This late 20th-century survey captures the region's enduring rural character, where small clusters like Reddy and Bland stand alongside essential local landmarks such as New Hope Ch. Genealogists will find particular value in the location of Walker Cem near the southern boundary of Marrowbone. The presence of Sewage Disposal Ponds near the main settlement reflects the modern infrastructure supporting this persistent farming community at the intersection of Macon, Moultrie, and Shelby counties.
