About this map

Irvington serves as the central hub of this Southern Illinois landscape, where the intersection of N US Highway 51 and the Illinois Central Railroad corridor anchors the local economy. The terrain is defined by the wandering paths of Grand Point Cr and Webster Cr, which drain the agricultural lands between small settlements like Noltings and Alda.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the placement of rural burial grounds, including Harres Cem in the north and both Irvington Cem and Grand Point Cem further south. The map also records the transition between several jurisdictions, clearly marking the boundaries for Washington, Marion, and Jefferson counties. Landmarks such as Prairie Airport and the Greenview Country Club Pond One reflect the mid-century development of leisure and transit infrastructure in this three-county corner.
