1926 Map of McHenry
USGS Topo · Published 1926About this map
The Chicago and Northwestern railroad network anchors this mid-1920s survey, dictating the development of northern Illinois agricultural hubs like Woodstock and McHenry. The landscape is defined by the Fox River and an intricate system of small water bodies such as Mc Cullom Lake and Lily Lake, surrounded by a dense grid of township roads. This era represents a peak for the rural school system, with nearly every section of the map featuring a named country schoolhouse, including the Silver Spring School and Keystone School.
