1959 Map of Equality
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Saline River and its multiple forks define the landscape of southern Illinois in this late 1950s survey, where industrial mining and agricultural settlements meet the wooded uplands of the Shawnee National Forest. The village of Equality sits near the confluence of the river's branches, supported by the Illinois Central RR and surrounded by a network of salt wells and coal operations, including several strip mines. To the south, the geological curiosity of Hicks Dome rises above the terrain, characterized by a radial drainage pattern of creeks like Hicks Branch and Goose Creek.
