1978 Map of Huntley
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
The village of Huntley sits at the intersection of rural agriculture and expanding regional infrastructure in this late 1970s survey. The landscape is defined by the Kishwaukee River and its South Branch, which cut through the townships of Coral, Grafton, and Seneca. A prominent grid of family-named roads, such as Hemmingson Road and Frohling Road, connects outlying farms to the central rail hubs. The Chicago and North Western and Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads illustrate the importance of these lines to the local economy before the dominance of the Northwest Tollway. Smaller community markers, including St Marys Ch, the adjacent St Marys Cem, and the Grange Hall, provide essential touchpoints for genealogists tracing the social and spiritual fabric of McHenry County and Kane County during this era of transition.
