About this map

St. Libory and the surrounding agricultural townships sit at the transition between St. Clair and Washington counties, characterized by a network of small settlements and family-named roads. The village of Darmstadt appears centrally, surrounded by landmarks like the Darmstadt Memorial Cem and Coal Mine Rd, hinting at the area's mixed history of farming and resource extraction. To the south, the northern outskirts of Marissa are visible near the Marissa Reservoir, while the hamlet of Biddleborn anchors the southeastern portion of the map.

Waterways like Little Mud Cr and Mud Cr wind through the landscape, defining the local drainage patterns. Religious and social history is reflected in locations such as Stone Church and several rural burial grounds, including the Saint Damian Cem and Salem Cem. This survey provides a clear look at the modern rural infrastructure, from the grain-hauling routes like Sparta St to the grid of section lines that still define property boundaries in this part of Illinois.
