USGS Topo · Published 1928About this map
Gibson City serves as a major rail hub in this late 1920s landscape, where the Illinois Central, Wabash, and New York Chicago and St Louis railroads converge. The map documents a dense network of rural infrastructure supporting the surrounding agricultural townships of Drummer, Dix, and Brown. A remarkable concentration of one-room schoolhouses, such as Scotland School, Antioch School, and Oregon School, reflects the decentralized nature of local education before the era of school consolidation.
