1998 Map of Scottland

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Elwood Prairie and the flatlands of the Illinois-Indiana border characterize this agricultural landscape at the close of the 20th century. The map centers on the small settlement of Scotland (Scotland Sta) and the nearby hamlets of Raven and West Dana, illustrating a rural pattern of development tied to the land and local rail history. A distinct Treaty Boundary cuts diagonally across the northern townships, reflecting an older layer of political geography that predates the standard section lines. The drainage of Brouilletts Creek and its tributaries, including Salt Fork and Lark Run, provides the only significant relief in the terrain. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites, identifying numerous family and community grounds such as Old Hopewell Cem, Newcomb Cem, Mt Carmel Cem, and Cameron Cem.
