2024 Map of Jerseyville North

About this map

The northern reaches of Jerseyville and the surrounding agricultural corridor of Jersey and Greene Counties are detailed in this contemporary survey. This landscape is defined by the winding course of Macoupin Creek in the north and the transition between established settlements like Kane and the older site of Old Kane. The map serves as a vital resource for genealogical research, documenting several rural burial grounds including Saint Francis Xaviers Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and the small Luckey - Weber Cem near the eastern border. Local infrastructure is anchored by a grid of named rural routes such as Witt Mill Rd and Victory School Rd, which highlight the area's history of one-room schoolhouses and milling. The drainage patterns of De Arcy Branch and Phils Creek provide a clear view of the natural topography that shaped early Illinois prairie farmsteads.
