2018 Map of Loami

About this map

Loami and its surrounding rural townships anchor this 2018 survey of southwestern Sangamon County. The landscape is defined by the branching waters of Lick Cr and Archer Cr, with Lake Loami and Sudduth Lake serving as central water features. Smaller settlements like Curran, Bates, and Knapp are connected by a grid of established roads such as Old Rte 54 and Mansion Rd. This map is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it preserves the locations of numerous family and community burial grounds, including the John Campbell Cem, Sulphur Springs Cem, and Oak Grove Cem. The geography reveals a classic Midwestern transition where the organized sections of the Public Land Survey System meet the winding, tree-lined riparian corridors of the S Fork Lick Cr and Polecat Cr.
