2012 Map of Danville SW

About this map

The Middle Fork Vermilion River and Salt Fork converge here, carving a valley where industry and settlement have long overlapped. West of South Danville, the landscape is dotted with several small water bodies like Missionfield Pond and Doughnut Pond, remnants of the region's surface mining history. The village of Catlin serves as a local hub, surrounded by a high density of small burial grounds that reflect the area's diverse ethnic and family heritage, including Lithuanian Cem, Saints Peter and Paul Cem, and the Wright Family Cem. Smaller settlements such as Kellyville, Unionville, and Hegeler line the eastern corridor, while the north is marked by the broad expanse of Thompson Hollow. This layout highlights the transition from the denser outskirts of Danville to the organized agricultural grid and scattered industrial hamlets of Vermilion County.
