1908 Map of Wheaton
USGS Topo · Published 1916About this map
Wheaton and the surrounding DuPage County townships appear here during a period of significant suburban development driven by a dense network of early 20th-century rail. The landscape is defined by the West Branch and East Branch Du Page River, which frame numerous small farming communities and growing commuter hubs. Notable transit lines like the Chicago Aurora and Elgin Electric RR and the Chicago and Northwestern Ry intersect at West Chicago, illustrating the transition from rural prairie to an interconnected metropolitan fringe.
