1979 Map of Raymond

About this map

Lou Yaeger Lake and its surrounding parklands define the southern portion of this Illinois landscape, which transitions from the northern reach of the reservoir into a well-ordered grid of agricultural townships. The village of Raymond serves as a central hub, where the High Sch and local residential streets sit at the intersection of regional transport routes. Further north, the town of Harvel marks the boundary where the Norfolk and Western railroad tracks cut a diagonal path across the prairie, following the same trajectory as the drainage of the Prairie Fork.
