USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
The city of Mendota serves as a major rail hub in the early 1950s, where the Chicago Burlington and Quincy, Illinois Central, and Chicago and North Western railroads intersect. This confluence of transportation supported a dense network of agrarian settlements and community institutions across LaSalle, Lee, and Bureau Counties. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including numerous family and church cemeteries such as Restland Cem, Holy Cross Cem, and Erbes Cem.
