Description

St. Clair (1917b) applied the name Sugar Hill Dome to a small structural high mapped by Shaw (1910) in Sections 4, 5, 8, and 9, T7S, R3W. Shaw's (1910) map was based on subsurface information on the Murphysboro Coal Member (Pennsylvanian), then called No. 2 Coal, in the Murphysboro Quadrangle. Root (1928) depicted the same dome on his structure map, but did not call it by name. From Root's (1928) map, it is evident that Sugar Hill Dome is a minor enclosed area along the eastern part of the greater Campbell Hill Anticline. As such, Sugar Hill Dome should not be retained as a separate named feature.
