The village of Vermont anchors this survey at the intersection of Fulton, McDonough, and Schuyler Counties. This West Central Illinois landscape is characterized by a dense distribution of rural burial grounds, including the Vermont Cem, Harris Cem, and Laurel Hill Cem near the neighboring community of Table Grove. The terrain is defined by the drainage basins of Sugar Cr and Otter Cr, where the topography breaks into wooded ravines and small water bodies like Vermont New-Lake and Freshwater Lake. For family historians, the map's preservation of family-named landmarks such as Foster Point Cem and Miles Cem offers precise locations for ancestral research. The presence of Richmond Airport and a grid of rural routes like Quarter Rd and Bailey Rd illustrate the modern transportation network laid over the traditional 1:24,000 scale Public Land Survey System sections.
