About this map

Sumner and Bridgeport anchor this Lawrence County landscape, showing the 2018 street grids and infrastructure of these neighboring Illinois communities. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage, including Muddy Cr, Crabapple Cr, and Raccoon Cr, which move through the rolling topography of Red Hill. To the north, Red Hills Lake serves as a prominent water feature near the western edge of the quadrangle.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites scattered across the rural townships, including Hopewell Cem, Shiloh Cem, and the Immaculate Conception Cem. The area between the two primary settlements is characterized by a high density of secondary roads such as S Christy Ave and Frontage Rd, reflecting the modern agricultural and residential development patterns of southeastern Illinois. Numerous small water bodies like Silver Springs and various named branches underscore the well-watered nature of the local environment.
