The system of Range and Baselines, section lines and property boundaries for Indiana, Illinois, and parts of adjoining states starts here. The young US Congress decided to start an orderly system of North/South and East/West lines to divide up the lands west of Pennsylvania. All based on an exact, fixed point. Look up Principle meridians and Lambert Points. The last major system is centered on Mt. Daible just east of San Francisco.
