About this map

The Wabash River snakes through the landscape, defining the topography near the Illinois-Indiana border where the Vermilion River and Little Vermilion River join its course. This 2013 survey documents a series of river-dependent communities, including the town of Cayuga and the historic settlement of Eugene. The terrain is characterized by broad floodplains and distinctive features like Manhattan Island and the meandering Coal Cr.

A noteworthy landmark preserved on this sheet is the Coal Creek Covered Bridge, located just south of Lodi. The map details the local road network and the positioning of smaller communities such as Silverwood and Howard against the waterways. For those interested in local history or geography, this document provides a clear look at how the river systems have shaped the placement of towns and infrastructure in this part of Vermillion County.
