2021 Map of Cyrene

About this map

Cyrene and Edgewood anchor the southern reaches of this Pike County survey, where a network of rural routes like Mount Zion Rd connects small agricultural communities. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainages of Buffalo Cr and Ramsey Cr, which carve through the terrain toward Buffalo Knob. This area is particularly notable for its scattered family and community burial grounds, including the Kritz Cem and Stark Cem, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. In the eastern portion, the settlement of Calumet sits near the headwaters of Calumet Cr, while Wilson Lake provides a rare contained water feature amidst the rolling hills. The road system, dominated by Pike County routes and State Hwy F, reveals a persistent settlement pattern that has changed little in its basic footprint over several decades.
