2012 Map of Pleasant Mound

About this map

Pleasant Mound and the surrounding Bond County countryside appear in this detailed survey, characterized by a grid of rural roads and scattered small communities. The map captures the agricultural and residential layout of Hookdale and Tamalco, while the southern edge of the quadrangle touches the northern reaches of Carlyle Lake. Significant for local family historians, the sheet identifies numerous burial grounds including Saint Peters Cem, Noffsinger Cem, Payne Cem, and Duncan Cem, which are often the primary records for nineteenth and twentieth-century rural residents.
