About this map

The Mississippi River defines the western edge of this 1935 survey, where the state boundary between Illinois and Iowa weaves through a complex system of river islands including Island No 254 and Island No 255. On the Illinois side, the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad follows the river's course, connecting the small settlement of Whitton to the wider region. Further south, the landscape is marked by Lost Mound and the nearby Lost Mound Sch, reflecting the local rural infrastructure of Jo Daviess and Carroll Counties before the mid-century.
