1982 Map of Edinburg
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
The South Fork Sangamon River and the expansive Sangchris Lake define the geography of this central Illinois landscape. In the early 1980s, the area reflects a complex mix of recreation and resource extraction, with Sangchris Lake State Park offering numerous picnic areas and a boat ramp alongside active energy production. The Roby Oil Field and scattered oil wells across the Field and East Field sections indicate the subterranean industrial value of the region. The village of Edinburg serves as a local hub, connected by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad which cuts diagonally across the terrain through Breckenridge and Berry. Genealogists will find several burial grounds preserved, including Oak Hill Cem, Furrow Cem, and Taylor Cem, documenting the long-standing rural communities of Buckhart and Rochester townships.
