About this map

The agricultural landscape of ST. Clair Co and Washington Co is defined by a network of rural settlements and winding tributaries. The village of Saint Libory serves as a northern anchor, while Darmstadt and the smaller community of Biddleborn dot the central plains. These settlements are connected by a grid of roads often named for local families and landmarks, such as Dintelmann Church Rd and Lichenbrock School Rd, reflecting the deep-rooted community history of this Illinois region.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with Little Mud Cr and Mud Cr meandering through the farmland toward the Marissa Reservoir near the town of Marissa. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Saint Damian Cem, Darmstadt Memorial Cem, and Salem Cem. The map also captures smaller locales like Caspars, providing a detailed view of the rural habitation patterns before continued modern development.
