About this map

The Saint Francois Mountains anchor the landscape of this southern St. Francois County region, where the town of Libertyville serves as a central hub of local history and heritage. Three distinct burial grounds—the Libertyville Christian Church Cem, Libertyville Methodist Cem, and the Wesley Chapel Cem—lie clustered near the settlement, reflecting the community's deep-rooted congregational history. Further southwest, the village of Knob Lick sits along the road network near its namesake Knob Lick Cem.

The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises and hollows, including Union Hill, Crow Hill, and the distinctive Castle Rock formation overlooking the Little Saint Francis River. For family historians, numerous smaller burial sites like the Sebastian Family Cem and Harris Cem are preserved among the winding routes of Old Fredericktown Rd and Old Jackson Rd. The northeastern corner transitions into the protected woodlands of the Mark Twain National Forest.
