2015 Map of Flora

About this map

Flora serves as the central hub of this Clay County landscape, where the grid of city streets like W 2nd St and E 12th St meets the rural agricultural sections of southern Illinois. The city is flanked by essential local infrastructure, notably the Flora Municipal Airport to the east and the sprawling Elmwood Cem to the west. Outside the city limits, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Little Wabash River and its many tributaries, including Buck Cr and Seminary Cr. For those tracing local heritage, the map is remarkably dense with family and community burial grounds such as Saint Stephens Cem, McCawley Cem, and the uniquely named Number Four Cem, indicating the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the surrounding townships.
