1961 Map of Ebenezer

About this map

McDaniel Lake serves as a central hydrological feature north of Springfield in this mid-century survey, which also documents the northward expansion of the city limits into North Campbell. The landscape is defined by the winding courses of the Little Sac River and the South Dry Sac River, while notable geological landmarks like Fantastic Caverns and Crystal Cave point to the region's karst topography. This era shows a transition in land use, with established agricultural communities like Ebenezer and Glidewell existing alongside new infrastructure such as a major Pipeline and sections of road marked Under Construction. Local heritage is well-preserved through several rural congregations and academic centers, including Robberson Prairie Ch, New Salem Ch, and Ritter Sch, providing a detailed record for genealogists tracing family roots in northern Greene County.
