About this map

The Kaskaskia River snakes across this terrain, defining a landscape of oxbow lakes and wetlands such as Big Forked Lake, Wildcat Lake, and Horseshoe Lake. The settlement of Addieville anchors the southwest corner of the sheet, where residential streets like W 3rd St and E 151 St meet at the local Addieville Cem. This part of Washington County is characterized by its rural road network, with many routes named after local wildlife, including Bluebird Rd, Chickadee Rd, and Bobwhite Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several rural burial sites, including Saint Lukes Cem and Lively Cem near the small community of Covington. To the west, the hamlet of Frogtown sits near the Olive Branch Lutheran Cem. The presence of Liberty School Rd suggests the historical locations of early educational centers that once served this agricultural region. The intricate waterways of Beaver Pond Cr and Little Crooked Cr further illustrate the drainage patterns that have shaped land use in the area.
