The Spoon River meanders across the southern and eastern reaches of this landscape, carving a valley defined by the winding paths of How Creek, Haw Creek, and Hickory Creek. For genealogists, the density of family-named burial grounds across this rural Illinois terrain is remarkable, preserving the legacy of early farming families through landmarks like Mc Callister Cem, Ferguson Cem, and Thurman Cem.
