Early circa 1900 post card view of Winfield Illinois Dupage County. On far right is St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church. The St John school is to the left of the Church building.
This is a very interesting view of Winfield Illinois. We are looking north toward the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad track in the far distance. Faintly on the top of the photo is the Winfield Tuberculosis Sanitarium. In the foreground we see a barn and what appears to be a shed or perhaps a chicken coop. (Source: Ebay.com)
