2015 Map of Vienna

About this map

Vienna serves as the focal point of this Johnson County survey, situated at the confluence of several local waterways including Little Cache Cr and McCorkle Cr. The settlement pattern follows the established corridors of the Cache River valley, with smaller communities like Buncombe, West Vienna, and Bloomfield punctuating the landscape. A significant portion of the northern terrain is managed as part of the Shawnee National Forest, where the topography becomes more pronounced around Wildcat Bluff and the waters of Dutchman Lake. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly well-documented with family and community burial grounds, including the Mount Zion Cem, Jenkins Cem, and Rose Hill Cem. This concentration of cemeteries, alongside named rural roads like Buncombe Rd and Old Bloomfield Rd, provides a clear view of the longstanding social and family geography of this Southern Illinois region.
