About this map

Fillmore serves as the primary hub of this rural landscape, situated just north of the Montgomery and Bond County line. The village's street grid, including E Pine St and E North St, anchors a region defined by agricultural plots and an extensive network of family-linked burial grounds. The distribution of sites like Glendale Cem, Cress Cem, and Whitten Cem suggests the deep roots of early prairie families across the township.

Water dictates the local geography, with the E Fork Shoal Cr and its tributaries, such as Lanes Br and Dry Fork, carving modest valleys through the terrain. To the south, the settlement of Van Burensburg sits along a bend in the road near the county border, while Fillmore Lake and Rocky Ford Lakes provide significant local landmarks. This survey illustrates a resilient rural infrastructure where names like Snow Cem and Neathery Cem preserve the genealogy of the Illinois interior.
