2015 Map of Chrisman

About this map

Chrisman serves as the central hub for this portion of Edgar County, where a grid of rural roads connects several small communities and historical family landmarks. The landscape is defined by agricultural fields punctuated by small settlements like Woodyard, Mortimer, and Bloomfield. Watercourses such as Crabapple Cr and S Fork Brouilletts Cr wind through the township, influencing the placement of the many small burial grounds that dot the area. For those tracing family histories, the map provides precise locations for Woodland Cem, Bloomfield Cem, and Gaines Cem, alongside more remote sites like Ross Cem and Hoult Cem. The intersection of Grapevine Rd and the east-west corridor near Cherry Point reflects the enduring rural infrastructure that has supported these Illinois farming communities for generations.
