2016 Map of Repton

About this map

Weston sits along the southern bank of the Ohio River in this 2016 survey, marking the transition from the riverfront to the upland ridges of Crittenden County. The landscape is defined by the sharp relief of features like Cain Bluff and Duncan Bluff, which rise above the winding paths of Crooked Creek and Camp Cr. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the small communities of Mattoon and Repton serve as local hubs, connected by a network of rural routes such as Mattoon Loop and Fishtrap Rd. Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the area, including Repton Cem, Walker Cem, and Lamb Cem, often situated near prominent terrain features like Obie Mound or the geologically distinct depression known as The Sinks. The northern section includes a portion of the Shawnee National Forest, reflecting the varied land use between timber, agriculture, and the rural homesteads that dot Daniels Ridge.
