2012 Map of Medora

About this map

Medora anchors the southeastern portion of this Macoupin County landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a dense network of country roads and small family-named landmarks. The terrain is shaped by the meandering course of Macoupin Cr and its tributaries, including Phils Cr, which cut through the farm plots. Smaller settlements like Kemper and Fidelity serve as local hubs, connected by routes such as Kemper Rd and S Appletrees Rd. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed regarding burial sites, documenting numerous small grounds like Pruitt Cem, Longwill Cem, and Moore Cem. These scattered cemeteries, often situated near original homesteads or along quiet lanes like Schoolhouse Ln, provide a clear view of the area's rural social geography in the early 21st century.
