2021 Map of Mount Olive

About this map

Union Miners Cem stands as a significant landmark on the northern edge of Mount Olive, anchoring a cluster of memorial grounds that include Immanuel Lutheran Cem, Cavalry Cem, and Mount Olive Cem. This concentration of cemeteries reflects the shared history and heritage of the community and the nearby settlement of Carlsburg. To the southwest, the edge of Staunton appears along the boundary of Macoupin and Montgomery Counties, where the landscape transitions from the grid of town streets to a rural network of county roads and creek drainages. The area is defined by its water systems, notably the branching of Silver Creek and the presence of Lake Ka-Ho. Rural life is etched into the map through numerous family-named routes such as Grosenheider Rd and Hoefker Rd, alongside landmarks like Heeren Pond and Saint Johns Lutheran Cem.
