1983 Map of Seward

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Seward and Myrtle sit within a landscape defined by the winding waters of the Leaf River and its numerous tributaries in the early 1980s. This survey captures the rural character of Northern Illinois, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts through the southern terrain near Byron. The map provides a detailed view of local community landmarks, including several educational and religious sites such as the Mary Morgan Sch and the Middle Creek Ch. A complex network of drainage is visible, with Grope Creek, Mill Fork, and Oak Grove Creek carving through the agricultural land. Evidence of local industry is present in several locations, specifically identified as a Quarry and a Gravel Pit, indicating the extraction of geological resources that supported the area's development and infrastructure.
