Spoon River meanders through the heart of this central Illinois landscape, carving a wide valley that defines the local topography. This 2021 survey documents the intersection of Knox, Stark, and Peoria Counties, where the rural settlements of Elmore and Laura remain the primary focal points of the community. The area is characterized by a high density of family and community burial grounds, including Glendale Cem near Elmore, Campbell Cem to the east, and French Grove Cem further south.
