Pyatts and Denny anchor this 2012 survey of the Illinois interior, where a dense network of country cemeteries and rural roads reveals the deep-rooted settlement patterns of Perry County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Beaucoup Creek and its many tributaries, including White Walnut Creek and Little Beaucoup Creek. This hydrology, combined with the terrain of Holts Prairie, has historically shaped the placement of local burial grounds and homesteads.
