About this map

The South Branch Kishwaukee River winds through the northern Illinois prairie, anchoring a landscape defined by its mid-century agricultural and rail connectivity. The city of Genoa serves as a central hub where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and the Illinois Central railroads intersect, highlighting the era's reliance on rail transport for moving goods and people through DeKalb County. Smaller rural settlements like Kingston and Charter Grove are depicted with their surrounding farmsteads and local landmarks, including Kingston Cem and Charter Grove Cem.
