2015 Map of Clark Center

About this map

Clark Center and Martinsville anchor this rural landscape in Clark County, showing a well-established grid of farm-to-market roads and several localized settlements including Adenmoor and Weir. The drainage pattern is defined by the winding paths of Hurricane Cr, Blackburn Br, and Willow Cr, which cut through the agricultural plains. Significant for local historians, the area is dotted with small burial grounds such as Island Grove Cem, Auburn Cem, and the Baird-Barr Cem, providing vital clues for genealogical research in this Illinois interior. The intersection of Old Highway 40 and Old US-40 near Mill Cr reflects the evolution of regional transportation before the modern interstate era. Water management is evident in the northern reaches, where the Mill Cr Watershed Impoundment Reservoir has altered the natural flow of the creek.
