2012 Map of Aledo West

About this map

Mercer County Fair Ground sits on the western edge of Aledo, marking the transition from the town's street grid to the agricultural expanse of Mercer County. This 2012 survey reveals a landscape deeply carved by drainage systems, where the Edwards River and Pope Cr define the northern and southern reaches. The settlement of Millersburg remains a focal point in the north, situated along Co Hwy-13. Genealogy and local history researchers will find a significant distribution of rural burial sites, including Oak Ridge Cem, Brick Cem, and Candor Cem, which often represent early pioneer families. The presence of Army Ford on the Edwards River suggests a historically important river crossing point, while smaller waterways like Wildcat Cr and Pike Run crisscross the productive prairie land between established road intervals.
