Tamms and Sandusky anchor the eastern landscape of Alexander County in the late 1990s, where the Illinois Central Railroad tracks parallel the Old Channel Cache River. This area is defined by a dense network of upland hollows and lowland sloughs, transitioning from the wooded heights of the Shawnee National Forest to the expansive waters of Horseshoe Lake. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, marked by numerous family burial grounds such as Miller Cem, McCrite Cem, and Childers Cem.
