1968 Map of Ava

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The settlement of Ava serves as the focal point of this southwestern Illinois landscape, where the southern Illinois coal fields meet the agricultural drainages of the Beaucoup Creek watershed. The Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad corridor provides a central axis for the town, while smaller unincorporated communities like Sato and Denmark appear as vital nodes in the rural road network. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial grounds, such as Tegtmeyer Cem, Cotton Cem, and Graff Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research.
