The eastern outskirts of Vincennes and the agricultural lands of Knox County define this 1942 survey, where a complex network of railroads reflects the region's industrial and transit importance. The Baltimore and Ohio RR cuts a straight path through the village of Fritchton, while the Pennsylvania RR and Chicago and Eastern Illinois RR navigate the terrain to the north and west. Local social services are prominent, represented by the County Farm, Hillcrest Hospital, and St Vincent Orphanage situated on the rise above the Kelso Creek bottoms.
