Edgewood serves as a central hub on this contemporary study of the Illinois prairie, situated where the borders of Effingham, Fayette, and Clay counties meet. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of Fulfer Creek and Dismal Creek, which cut through the agricultural grid. This area preserves an extensive record of early settlement through its numerous burial grounds, including the Old Mason Cem and Saint Annes Cem, which sit alongside established communities like Mason and Gilmore.
