About this map

A dense network of one-room schoolhouses and rural churches defines this section of northern Illinois during the early 1940s. The landscape is bisected by three major railroads, including the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific which serves the community of Lanark, and the Chicago Great Western passing through the northern hills near Loran. The county seat of Mt Carroll sits as a primary hub, while smaller rail-related stops like Ashdale Junc and Chadwick show the era's reliance on steel rails for local commerce.
