1944 Map of Ramsey
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Ramsey serves as the central hub of this mid-century landscape where the Illinois Central and the New York Chicago and St Louis railroads intersect. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Kaskaskia River and its numerous tributaries like Ramsey Creek and Becks Creek. This survey reveals a dense network of rural infrastructure typical of the era, from the State Penal Farm in the south to the numerous country schools such as Sterling Sch and Moonshine Sch that dotted the countryside before the consolidation of local districts.
