1971 Map of Winnebago

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The expanding western edge of Rockford meets the agricultural heart of Winnebago County in this mid-1970s record of Illinois' rural-to-urban transition. Settlement is anchored by the village of Winnebago and the crossroads of Wempletown, while the surrounding landscape is defined by the North Fork Kent Creek and South Fork Kent Creek. The influence of the postwar era is visible in the cluster of broadcast landmarks, including Radio Tower (WREX-TV) and Radio Tower (WTVO-TV), which stand as vertical anchors across the prairie.
