Mound City is all the way down at the Southern part of Illinois. Almost at the river. It is Southwest of or in Pulaski County. I noticed also there is also Mounty City National Cemetery there. Maybe somehow you could check that out. I don't know how to do that. So it is way at the bottom of Illinois. If you need anything else let me know. Did you find a lot on that website? I will keep looking for you...
