2021 Map of Annapolis

About this map

Annapolis and Melrose anchor this rural landscape along the boundary of Clark and Crawford counties. This agricultural region is defined by a dense network of country roads, including Co Hwy 19 and Co Hwy 11, which connect small unincorporated settlements like Orange and Neadmore. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of several family and community burial sites, such as Medsker Cem, Wesley Chapel Cem, and Dix Cem. The terrain is drained by numerous winding waterways, including Muddy Cr, Big Cr, and the N Fork Raccoon Cr. To the northeast, the presence of Craig Lake stands as a notable water feature amidst the rolling prairie and creek bottoms that characterize this part of eastern Illinois.
