Beecher City and Cowden anchor this 2018 survey of the borderlands between Shelby, Fayette, and Effingham counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Kaskaskia River and its numerous tributaries, including Richland Cr and Wolf Cr, which carve a complex network of drainage through the agricultural landscape. Smaller settlements like Holliday and Moccasin are connected by a grid of county roads such as Co RD 3300 N and 1950th Ave.
