"2 Civil War-era maps are discovered and shed light on Will County
Civil War-era charts are shedding light on Will County history
By Joel Hood | Tribune reporter
February 15, 2008
Nobody is sure how long the old maps had been in that forgotten cast iron vault, nothing but twine and luck holding them together.
It wasn't until officials delicately unfurled the crumbling relics that the significance of the discovery came to light: a Civil War-era snapshot of Will County, and its movers and shakers, in remarkable detail."
