1954 Map of Horton

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Illinois Central railroad serves as the primary industrial corridor through this portion of Ohio County, connecting the settlements of Horton and Sandefur Crossing. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape where traditional agricultural life and emerging heavy industry coexist. Rural social centers are numerous, evidenced by a dense network of country churches including Rickett Ch, Voyles Ch, and Hamlin Chapel. Local education is anchored by facilities such as Beaver Dam High Sch and Bruce High Sch, while smaller schoolhouses like Vinehill Sch remain in the hills.
