About this map

Literberry and the surrounding agricultural landscape of Morgan County are detailed in this contemporary topographic record. The terrain is defined by the branching drainages of Indian Cr and Snake Cr, which carve through the plains toward the Cavanaugh Bluff area. This map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, as it identifies numerous small family and community burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including the Henderson - McFadden Cem, Rucker Cem, and Sample Cem.

Infrastructure like the Jacksonville Municipal Airport and the residential pocket of Portuguese Hill contrast with the rural crossroads of Arcadia and Strawns Crossing. The complex network of named secondary roads, such as Literberry Triopia Rd and Strawn Crossing Rd, follows the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how historical land divisions continue to dictate the modern movement of people and goods across the Mauvaise Terre Creek watershed.
