1968 Map of Elizabeth
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The village of Elizabeth sits at the junction of rail and river in this 1960s survey of Jo Daviess County. The Chicago and North Western railroad cuts a diagonal path through the landscape, following the winding valley of the Apple River and connecting smaller outposts like Woodbine. This era captures a rural economy still defined by local landmarks and extractive industries, evidenced by several Quarry sites scattered along the creeks. To the south, the terrain shifts toward Derinda Center and the drainage of Little Rush Creek.
