2018 Map of Springerton

About this map

Mill Shoals and Springerton anchor this agricultural landscape in southern Illinois, where the White County line meets Hamilton County. The drainage patterns of Skillet Fork and Beaver Cr dictate the layout of the rural road network, which is organized primarily into a grid of county routes. The area is notable for its numerous small burial grounds that serve as vital links for local genealogy, including the Springerton Cem, Hammack Cem, and the uniquely named Kitty Sweeten Cem. In the northeast corner, the settlement of Burnt Prairie sits near the headwaters of Prairie Cr, while the southern reaches are defined by the broad lowlands of Broad Run and Lost Cr. This map captures a mature rural community where the infrastructure of local life—centered on family cemeteries and small-town intersections—remains clearly visible.
