1952 Map of Shelburn

About this map

Shelburn and Farmersburg serve as the primary anchors of this mid-century Sullivan County landscape, where the Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad corridor dictates the path of development. The area is characterized by a high density of rural institutions, including Douglas Chapel Ch, Concord Ch, and Benson Ch, alongside numerous family and community burial grounds such as McKinley Cem and Little Flock Cem. These sites, scattered across the townships of Curry, Hamilton, and Fairbanks, reflect a deeply rooted agricultural and coal-mining society.
