2012 Map of Melvin East
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
The villages of Roberts and Melvin anchor this section of Ford County, situated within a landscape of expansive Illinois farmland defined by a meticulous grid of rural roads. This 2012 survey reveals the continued importance of agricultural heritage at Kendrick Farm and the specialized transport hub at Beherns Airport. The town of Melvin is mapped in detail, showing streets like N Center St and 2nd St, along with the Melvin Cem located just to the north. Water management is a critical feature of this prairie terrain, evidenced by the channelized Big Four Ditch cutting across the southwestern corner. The map documents a classic Midwestern interior, where small-town centers are connected by long-established section lines and named routes like W Green St and N Main St.
