The northern reaches of Cape Girardeau and neighboring Jackson meet in this landscape defined by the rolling hills and creek valleys of southeastern Missouri. The area is marked by a high density of rural burial grounds that speak to the long-standing family settlements of the region, including Vangilder Cem, Noland Cem, and the McLains Chapel Cem. Smaller communities like Leemon and Oriole are situated among a complex network of county roads and named ridges such as Tricky Hill, Iron Hill, and Grassy Knob.
