About this map

The Illinois River snakes through the eastern portion of this landscape, carving a series of named hollows and bluffs including Molly Field Hollow, Telamay Hollow, and the prominent Eagles Bluff. This 2010 survey of the Cherokee County area reveals a rural region defined by its water systems, including the managed flow of Fourteenmile Creek with its specialized reservoirs at Fourteen Mile Creek Site 1 Reservoir and Fourteen Mile Creek Site 2 Reservoir.

Family and community history are preserved in the locations of the Teresita Cemetery and Agent Cemetery, while the small settlement of Liberty sits at a crossroads in the western section. Significant river crossings like Combs Bridge and distinctive geological features such as Hanging Rock indicate the primary travel corridors and landmarks used by residents. The terrain is further dissected by numerous smaller waterways, notably Spring Creek, Double Spring Creek, and Blackbird Creek.
