About this map

The village of Grandview serves as a primary point of reference in this landscape of Edgar County, Illinois, where the grid of rural roads connects several small settlements and a high density of family and historic burial sites. The presence of the Cholera Cem near Grandview and others like the New Goshen Cem and Augustus Cem provides significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local family lineages.

Waterways such as the W Fork Big Cr and Flemington Cr dictate the local topography, while small-scale aviation is represented by Bussart Airport, Gough Airport, and Glatthaar Airport. Further north and east, the unincorporated communities of Dudley, Conlogue, and Bell Ridge mark the transition toward the borders of the county, illustrating the enduring agricultural character of east-central Illinois in the early 21st century.
