About this map

The intersection of agriculture and rural community life defines this pocket of Western Illinois, centered on the village of Clayton. Family-named cemeteries like Meints Cem, Sargent Cem, and Knight Cem dot the uplands between the branching ravines of Missouri Creek and the South Fork. These burial grounds, alongside the Mt Horeb Ch and the Evangelical Cem, provide essential anchor points for genealogists tracing 19th and 20th-century family lines in the area.
