About this map

Egypt Mills and Bainbridge sit along the high bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River bottomlands, where the Illinois and Missouri border follows the shifting river channel. This modern survey illustrates a landscape of stark contrasts, from the upland ridges of the Shawnee National Forest to the engineered drainage of the floodplain. The river's influence is evident in features like Vancill Towhead and Sheppard Point, which define the navigation corridor between Union County and Cape Girardeau County. Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped locations of the Trinity Lutheran Church-Cem, Keyser Cem, and Ralls Cem. Significant infrastructure like the Miss River Levee Rd and drainage systems including Running Lake Ditch and Number 2 Ditch reveal the extensive efforts to manage the low-lying acreage surrounding Wolf Lake and Ware.
