About this map

The Spoon River snakes through the heart of this post-war landscape, carving a wide valley through the townships of Isabel, Waterford, and Pleasant. The settlement of Duncan Mills serves as a local hub near the river crossing, where the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line skirts the northern bluffs. This 1947 survey captures a dense network of rural infrastructure, notably an unusually high concentration of country schools such as Wild Goose Sch, Oak Ridge Sch, and Hickory Sch, reflecting the community structure of Fulton County before the mid-century trend of district consolidation.
