About this map

Independence Mountain and Wamble Mountain dominate the northern terrain of this southern Illinois landscape, part of the Shawnee National Forest. The 1959 survey reveals a rural network of small communities and family landmarks, with the settlement of Herod located along the banks of Gibbons Creek. This area was historically shaped by local industry and resource extraction, evidenced by the Empire Mine and Red Mine situated near Big Grand Pierre Creek.
