2015 Map of Pekin
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The Illinois River corridor dominates this 2015 study of Central Illinois, where the industrial and residential landscapes of Pekin and Bartonville meet the waterways of the Illinois valley. The massive Powerton Cooling Lake stands out as a significant man-made feature of the river plain, situated between the communities of Powerton and Crescent. This area is particularly dense with genealogical markers, featuring a concentration of burial grounds such as Lakeside Cem, Sacred Heart Catholic Cem, and Lakeview Cem in the city center, while rural cemeteries like Bequaith Cem and Hollis Cem are scattered across the surrounding bluffs. To the west, the winding paths of Lamarsh Cr and the Mackinaw River illustrate the complex hydrology that historically shaped local settlement patterns in Mapleton and Stoehrs.
