1982 Map of Villa Grove NW

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Embarras River meanders through this agricultural section of East Central Illinois, defining the rural landscape of southern Champaign and northern Douglas Counties. The survey captures the transport and community hubs of Philo and Tolono during the early 1980s, where the Norfolk and Western railroad corridor remains a primary artery for the region's grain-driven economy. Local heritage is preserved through markers such as the Jessee Cem and the Townhall within Crittenden township, reflecting the decentralized social structure of these farming townships. Educational and religious life is anchored by St Mary Sch and Unity High Sch, while a network of drainage features like Black Slough and Missouri Slough underscores the ongoing engineering required to manage the fertile but low-lying prairie land for cultivation.
