About this map

The Green River carves a winding path through the northern reaches of this landscape, separating the higher ground of Coltharpe Hills and Wrightsburg Hill from the lowlands to the south. This area, where McLean, Webster, and Hopkins counties converge, is defined by small agricultural settlements and a network of rural roads that follow the contours of the drainage basins. Wrightsburg sits prominently on the southern bank of the river, while the community of Onton serves as a central point for local families, evidenced by the clustered Onton Cem and Old Onton Cem. Farther south, the terrain becomes more dissected by tributaries like Pitman Cr and Sugar Camp Cr. Notable family and community landmarks, such as Samuels Cem and Sassafras Grove Cem, are scattered throughout the countryside, marking the long-standing roots of residents in this river-bottom and hill country.
