Cape Girardeau serves as the focal point of this riverfront survey, where the Mississippi River forms the eastern boundary between Missouri and Illinois. The city’s historical layout is anchored by the Cape Girardeau County Common Pleas Courthouse and the sprawling campus of Southeast Missouri State University. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds, ranging from the central Old Lorimier Cem and New Lorimier Cem to the outlying Old McKendree Cem and Hanover Lutheran Church Cem. To the north, the city of Jackson appears, while Scott City anchors the southern edge of the sheet.
