1970 Map of Salisbury
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Lincolns New Salem State Park preserves the frontier history of the area along the Sangamon River, including the Old Grist Mill near Lewisburg. This 1970s record shows the landscape at a point of modernization, where the established town of Salisbury and the settlement at Tice sit alongside newer developments like Lake Petersburg and several specialized facilities including Sunny Acres Nursing Home. The map serves as a vital genealogical resource, documenting numerous rural burying grounds such as Hickory Grove Cem, Farmers Point Cem, and Harrison Cem. The path of the Chicago and Illinois Midland railroad cuts through the northern sections, while Richland Ch and Richland Creek mark the southern border where Menard and Sangamon Counties meet.
