About this map

The Wabash River serves as a winding natural boundary between Illinois and Indiana, shaping the landscape and settlement patterns of this riverine territory. Small communities like Heathsville and Richwoods anchor a network of rural roads, where numerous family and community cemeteries reflect generations of local lineage. Genealogists may find interest in specific sites such as Wesley Chapel Cem, Maddox Cem, and Fuller Cem, which are scattered throughout the agricultural tracts.

Along the western banks, the terrain is marked by notable elevations such as Bristol Hill and the culturally significant Indian Mound. The river’s dynamic nature is evident in features like Johnsons Cutoff and Horseshoe Cutoff, while inland water bodies including Buzzard Pond and Grays Pond dot the lowlands. Near the northern border, Mann Airport sits just south of the Crawford and Sullivan county line, serving the transit needs of this tri-county intersection.
