1980 Map of Pearl East

About this map

The Illinois River corridor dominates this landscape, serving as a political boundary between Greene, Pike, and Calhoun counties. In the early 1980s, the river plain was a complex network of levees and water features like Weson Island and Wing Slough. Industry and transport follow the river's path, most notably the Illinois Central Gulf railroad which passes through the community of Hillview. The eastern bluffs are deeply incised by hollows such as Bridgewater Hollow and Scott Hollow, where many local family burial grounds are located, including Shelton Cem and Bridgewater Cem.
