USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Kaskaskia River snakes across this Southwestern Illinois landscape, defining the boundaries between St. Clair, Clinton, and Washington counties. This 1940 revision reflects a rural economy deeply tied to the river and the Louisville & Nashville RR, which serves as the primary artery for towns like Okawville and New Memphis Sta. The map reveals a dense network of German-settled farming communities and hamlets, many established in the mid-19th century.
