1970 Map of Prairie Grove
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park sits at the northern edge of this 1970s landscape, marking the historic grounds where the town of Prairie Grove developed along an old Railroad Grade. This area of Washington County transitions from the residential streets of the town into a terrain of deeply cut creek valleys and high points like Pinnacle and Stevenson Mountain. The map reveals a dense network of early family history sites, including the Illinois Chapel Cem, Sharp Cem, and Rutherford Cem. Significant rural infrastructure is visible, from the Lake Prairie Grove reservoir to the isolated community halls and churches like New Sulphur Ch and New Hope Community Hall. Further south, the landscape is defined by the winding Illinois River and the small settlements of Hubbard and Hogeye, which maintain their identity through local landmarks like Big Spring and the minnow farm.
