1962 Map of Waltersburg

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Eddyville and Waltersburg anchor this 1960s topographic study of Pope County, where the southern Illinois landscape is defined by the dense woodlands of the Shawnee National Forest. The map captures a rural social structure built around family-named landmarks and country churches, such as New Liberty Ch and Palestine Ch. Waterways like Lusk Creek and its many tributaries, including Frieze Branch and Copperous Branch, carved the terrain long before modern infrastructure dominated the region.
