Havana anchors this reach of the Illinois River, situated just below the confluence with the Spoon River. The geography is defined by a complex network of waterways and low-lying islands, including the Island of Canton and Matanzas Island. These riverine features, alongside Deep Slough and Cook Harbor, illustrate the area's historical reliance on the river for navigation and commerce. Away from the water, the landscape is marked by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Fullerton Cem, Laurel Hill Cem, and the Hancock-Pioneer Cem, providing a detailed record for genealogical study.
