About this map

Duquoin and the surrounding coal-rich southern Illinois countryside are meticulously detailed in this mid-1920s survey. The landscape is defined by the intersection of major rail lines and the winding course of the Little Muddy River. Active industrial sites such as the Big Ben Mine and Paradise Mine underscore the region's reliance on extraction, while the dense network of one-room schoolhouses like Hickory Knoll School and Bald Hill School reveals a deeply settled rural society.
