1974 Map of Fountain Green

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Fountain Green and Webster anchor the northern landscape of this west-central Illinois survey, an area defined by agricultural plateaus dissected by winding creek valleys. The drainage system of the East Fork La Moine River creates a complex topography of ridges and hollows in the south, including the distinctively named Battlesnake Den Hollow. This 1970s record highlights a community deeply connected to its local heritage, evidenced by numerous family and community burial grounds such as McConnell Cem, Wright Cem, and Lincoln Cem. Small rural centers like Joetta and religious landmarks such as Majorville Ch and Oak Grove Ch illustrate the dispersed settlement pattern of the Hancock and Tennessee townships during this era. The map also identifies local activity at the Sandpit and the La Moine Camp, providing a detailed look at the land use and social geography of the county line.
