About this map

The border of Edgar and Clark counties in Illinois defines this landscape, where the agricultural plains are deeply incised by the drainage network of Mill Creek. This waterway and its numerous tributaries, including Sevenmile Creek and Ennis Creek, create a dendritic pattern across the terrain, culminating in the Mill Cr Impoundment Number 2 Reservoir to the south. The small settlement of Martin and the Perry Airport sit on the higher, flatter ground near Tarble Lake.

For genealogists and local historians, the area is notable for its numerous small burial sites that dot the countryside. These include the Boyer Family Cem, Taylor Cem, Green Moss Cem, and Shiloh Cem. The rural road network, featuring routes such as the Lincoln Heritage Trl and Cline Orchard Rd, connects these sites with local landmarks like the Clarksville Baptist Cem, illustrating the distributed nature of early regional settlement.
