1968 Map of Xenia
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The village of Xenia stands as a focal point of this Southern Illinois landscape, situated at the junction of the Baltimore and Ohio and Illinois Central Gulf railroads. This era of the late 1960s and 1970s shows the region's heavy reliance on the Xenia Oil Field, with numerous oil wells dotting the township lines of Songer, Omega, and Iuka. The terrain is deeply incised by Skillet Fork and its many tributaries, including Crabapple Branch and Bickle Branch, which dictate the rural road network and the placement of early family settlements.
