1948 Map of Sandwich
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Fox River corridor serves as the primary artery for settlement and industry in this 1948 survey, where the river-fed towns of Sheridan, Millington, and Millhurst anchor the southern landscape. The diagonal path of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad remains the defining economic engine for the region, connecting the larger hubs of Sandwich and Plano to the broader Illinois rail network. These towns show their mid-century footprints, including the Fair Grounds and local Sewage Disposal infrastructure.
