2019 Map of Dycusburg

About this map

The Cumberland River carves a deep path through this landscape, marking the boundary between Livingston and Crittenden Counties. This region is characterized by its numerous natural springs and small settlements that historically supported the local river-and-rail economy. The settlement of Dycusburg sits near the river's edge, anchored by Spring St and the Dycusburg Cem. The terrain rises to the west toward Post Oak Ridge and to the northeast at Whitt Bluff, with the landscape dotted by family-named cemeteries such as Mathews Cem, Owens Cem, and Asbridge Cem. The abundance of water sources, from Maple Lake to smaller features like Larping Spring and Bogard Spring, illustrates the hydrology that shaped these rural communities. Researchers can trace the network of country roads including Pinckneyville Rd and Tiline Rd connecting the outlying hamlets of Pinckneyville and Tiline.
