2024 Map of Avena

About this map

The Kaskaskia River and its numerous tributaries, including Big Creek and the South Fork Kaskaskia River, dominate this section of Fayette County. This rural landscape is defined by its deep network of creeks and small settlements like Avena and Post Oak. The topography reveals distinctive local landmarks such as White Oak Mound and Island Hill, rising above the winding waterways. For genealogists, the map is a significant record of local burial sites, documenting Mount Carmel Cem, Liberty Cem, and Yolton Cem, among several others. The road system, including E Cumberland Rd, follows a strict grid that navigates around the irregular terrain of Suck Creek and Linn Creek, illustrating the persistence of early twentieth-century land division patterns into the modern era.
