1980 Map of Pearl West

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Tick Ridge and the Spring Creek valley dominate this landscape along the border of Pike and Calhoun Counties. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent ridges and deep hollows, such as Farmers Ridge and the high ground of Montezuma. Small rural communities and crossroad settlements like Pearl, Greenpond, and Straut are connected by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad and the Gulf Central route. The map reveals a deeply established social fabric evidenced by numerous country churches and family burial grounds, including Nebraska Ch and the Kessinger Cem. Natural landmarks like Twin Culvert Cave and the waters of Silkwood Bay at the Mississippi Valley Service Camp provide a clear view of the local topography and recreational sites as they existed in the late 1970s.
