1947 Map of Stewardson
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Kaskaskia River winds through the northwest corner of this Shelby County landscape, providing a stark contrast to the surveyed grid of the prairie lands to the east. By the mid-20th century, the region was defined by a dense network of country schools and rural churches that anchored small farming communities. Educational sites like the Mahoney Sch and East Salem School are shown alongside spiritual centers such as Jordan Chapel and Wesley Chapel.
