1971 Map of Paw Paw
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The agricultural landscape of Lee, DeKalb, and La Salle Counties centers on the community of Paw Paw, where the Chicago Burlington and Northern Railroad intersects a grid of country roads. This 1971 field-checked survey reveals a region defined by its small rural settlements and family-named landmarks. Smaller clusters like Rollo and the station at Radley are situated along the rail line, while local infrastructure such as the Rogers Brothers Landing Strip and several Gravel Pits illustrate the local aviation and extractive needs of the early 1970s.
