USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Lincoln Homestead Memorial Park and the meandering Sangamon River anchor this mid-century survey of the Central Illinois prairie. The landscape is defined by its transit history, showing the Illinois Central, Wabash, and Baltimore and Ohio railroads connecting agricultural hubs like Latham, Warrensburg, and Niantic. A dense network of local landmarks provides significant value for genealogical research, including family-named sites like Muirheid Cem and Hudelson Cem.
