About this map

Palmyra serves as the focal point of this 1950 survey, showing the city's concentrated street grid and its position as a regional hub for the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad. The surrounding landscape of Marion County is defined by a dense network of rural infrastructure, including a notable number of small country schools such as Todd Sch and North River Sch. Social and community history is preserved in the location of the Marion County Infirmary and numerous religious centers like Bethel Ch and Salem Sch.
