Stronghurst serves as the primary hub in this corner of Western Illinois, where the local economy and geography are defined by the intricate creek systems feeding toward the Mississippi. This survey captures a landscape punctuated by small, established communities and ancestral burial grounds like Maple Grove Cem near Decorra and Peasley Cem to the south. The southern edge of the map reveals a complex intersection of county lines, where Henderson, Hancock, and McDonough counties meet near the headwaters of the La Moine River.
