2018 Map of Humboldt

About this map

Humboldt and its surrounding township define this agricultural landscape in Coles County, where the village is centered on Commercial St and Adams St. The terrain is drained by several small watercourses, including Flat Br in the north and Crabapple Cr through the center, leading toward the northern edge of Mattoon. Genealogists will find the Humboldt Township Cem and Humboldt Cem clearly marked just outside the main settlement. The map reveals the precise layout of the rural road network, with established routes like Wetzel Rd and Apple Dr connecting the smaller settlement of Dorans to the larger centers. This survey documents the transition from village streets to the rectilinear grid of county roads that supports the region's farming economy, alongside the essential waterways like Riley Cr in the south.
