About this map

The village of Peotone stands as a central rail hub in the mid-1950s, defined by the intersection of the Illinois Central and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads. This intersection governed the movement of goods and people across the prairie landscape of Will County, connecting the farming community to wider markets. The terrain is marked by a network of drainage ways, including Forked Creek and the South Branch Rock Creek, which traverse the flat agricultural lands.
