2018 Map of Hoyleton

About this map

Nashville and Hoyleton anchor this agricultural section of Washington County, where a grid of rural roads and watercourses defines the landscape of the Illinois prairie. The village of New Minden and the smaller settlement of Huegely serve as local hubs, surrounded by a dense network of family-named thoroughfares such as Walnut Hill Rd and Hickory Rd. Several historical burial grounds, including Saint Johns Cem and Trinity Cem, are situated near the town centers, while others like North Prairie Cem and Pleasant Grove Cem are placed further afield in the township sections. The drainage of the land is illustrated by Coon Creek and Middle Creek, which carve gentle paths through the surrounding farmlands. This survey provides a modern view of a region that has maintained its traditional township structure and community layout over many generations.
