About this map

The Ohio River serves as a natural boundary between Illinois and Kentucky in this 2019 survey, where the bluffs of Crittenden County meet the water. A diverse landscape of ridges and hollows defines the interior, anchored by small settlements like Mattoon and Repton in the southeast and Weston along the riverfront. The terrain is marked by distinctive karst and geological features, including The Sinks and No Bottom Spring, alongside numerous named elevations such as The Pinnacle and Turkey Knob.

Family history is preserved through a network of small burial grounds, including Repton Cem, Duval Cem, and Lamb Cem. The map traces a mix of traditional and modern access routes, from the historic Old Fords Ferry Rd to the more recent Seminary Loop Rd. Wooded areas of the Shawnee National Forest occupy the northwestern corner, illustrating the balance of public conservation and private landholdings in this rural corridor.
