The Illinois River serves as the central artery for this mid-1960s landscape, separating the industrial and rail hubs of Spring Valley and Peru to the north from the agricultural and mining reaches of Granville to the south. Evidence of the region’s coal heritage is visible in the mine dumps near Mark and Standard, while the heavy influence of European immigrant communities is reflected in numerous parish cemeteries such as Lithuanian Cem, St George Cem, and SS Peter and Paul Cem.
