West Salem and Berryville anchor this corner of the Illinois prairie where the borders of Richland, Edwards, Lawrence, and Wabash counties converge. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Bonpas Cr, which serves as a natural boundary and drainage basin for numerous tributaries including Higgins Cr, Crooked Cr, and Little Bonpas Cr. For genealogists and local historians, this map is particularly dense with small family and community burial sites, from Shiloh Number 1 Cem in the north to Pinhook Cem and Moravian Cem near the southern village limits. The survey reveals a rigid section-line road grid—marked by routes like Co Road 00 N and N 2320 Blvd—that occasionally yields to the meandering paths of Buck Run and Jordan Cr. This 2015 edition provides a precise look at the rural intersection of these four counties before further modern consolidation of local land use.
