1964 Map of Milan East

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Milan serves as the focal point for this Sullivan County survey, situated at the western edge where the Chicago Burlington And Quincy railroad line runs parallel to East Locust Creek. The landscape transition from the town center to the rural townships of Polk, Union, and Pleasant Hill is marked by a network of family-named cemeteries and small community landmarks. Notable rural sites include Sorrell and Mt Moriah Ch, the latter situated near the headwaters of Little Locust Creek. The map documents a shifting transportation landscape, specifically identifying an Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the northern terrain. Mid-century cultural life is reflected by the presence of a Drive-in Theater on the outskirts of Milan, while the drainage patterns of Yellow Creek and Paw Paw Creek dictate the agricultural layout of the eastern ridges.
