About this map

The Illinois Terminal RR and Chicago and Eastern Illinois RR anchor the industrial and social landscape of this post-war Illinois-Indiana border region. Centered on Ridge Farm, the map reveals a dense network of agricultural settlements and transport hubs, from the larger town of Georgetown in the north to Chrisman in the south. The rural character is defined by a high concentration of local institutions, including dozens of country schoolhouses such as Baum Sch and Prairie Union Sch, and spiritual centers like Friends Ch and Wesley Chapel.
