About this map

Virginia serves as a central hub in this Cass County landscape, where an intricate grid of roads like E Broadway St and N Main St connects the town to the surrounding agricultural prairie. The topography is defined by the drainage patterns of Clear Cr and Prairie Cr, which carve through the land toward smaller settlements such as Little Indian and Burlingame.

Genealogists will find a high density of family-named burial sites scattered throughout the rural sections, including Levi Springer Cem, John Epler Taylor Cem, and the Bethlehem Cem. The map also preserves the locations of smaller communities like Old Princeton and Anderson, alongside landmarks like Walnut Ridge Cem near Virginia Lake. This detail provides a clear look at the distribution of early settlements and family homesteads across the central Illinois plains.
