1955 Map of Menominee

About this map

The Mississippi River valley dominates this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by the complex channels and islands of the Upper Mississippi River Wildlife and Fish Refuge. Along the eastern bluffs in Illinois, the Illinois Central railroad serves the community of Menominee and its namesake Menominee (Station). The river corridor is a labyrinth of side channels like Crooked Slough and Deadmans Slough, surrounding major landforms such as Ninethile Island.
