About this map

Leesville and the surrounding townships sit along the Illinois Indiana state line, reflecting a landscape defined by drainage engineering and the expansion of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad. The map reveals the intricate network of the Lake Ditch and Redden Ditch systems, which were vital for reclaiming the prairie for agriculture. Local community life is centered around rural institutions like Pembroke Sch and several places of worship, including Guiding Star Ch and the Rehoboth Tabernacle Ch.
