1944 Map of New Douglas
USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
Shoal Creek and its companion, Little Shoal Creek, carve a winding path through this corner of Madison and Bond counties, defining a landscape of agricultural plateaus and timbered breaks. At the time of this mid-century survey, the rural economy was anchored by a dense network of one-room schoolhouses such as Hedgebound Sch, Kauffman Sch, and Wider Range Sch. The railroad lines of the New York Chicago and St Louis and the Pennsylvania intersect the territory, connecting established settlements like New Douglas, Sorento, and Pocahontas to wider markets.
