1950 Map of Maywood

About this map

The North Fabius River and its sister forks dominate this portion of Lewis and Marion counties, creating a landscape defined by meandering watercourses and flood control measures. Near Taylor, a complex network including a Diversion Ditch, levees, and the Old Channel illustrates mid-century efforts to manage the river's flow. The settlement of Maywood serves as a local hub, situated where the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cuts across the prairie, providing a critical link for the agricultural community.
