Fairview and Rapatee anchor this section of the Illinois prairie, situated among the complex drainage networks of Coal Creek and its many tributaries. The landscape is deeply etched by water, with Little Coal Creek, S Fork Coal Creek, and N Br Coal Creek winding through the terrain toward the Spoon River in the northwest. This 2012 survey illustrates a region where the rural grid is punctuated by numerous family and community burial grounds, reflecting generations of settlement history.
