2012 Map of Pulaski

About this map

The Cache River and its intricate drainage network, including Cypress Slough and Pulaski Slough, define the geography of this Southern Illinois landscape. Centered around the village of Pulaski, the area is notable for its high concentration of family and community burial grounds, which offer significant value for genealogical research. These include the Henderson Cem, Rose Hill Cem, and the extensive Green Lawn Memorial Gardens. To the south, the settlement of Villa Ridge sits near a cluster of historic sites such as Mount Calvary Cem and the Cairo City Cem. The map documents the rural road network and the creek systems of Sow Cr and Boar Cr, illustrating the layout of agricultural tracts and small communities like Pryortown and Spencer Heights in the early 21st century.
