2024 Map of Aledo West

About this map

Edwards River and Pope Creek define the agricultural landscape of Mercer County, where deeply incised drainages carve through the prairie. The western outskirts of Aledo show a structured grid of residential streets, including SW 7th St and W Main St, while the unincorporated community of Millersburg sits further north along the Edwards River. This map is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it identifies numerous rural burying grounds scattered across the countryside, such as Peniel Cem, Brick Cem, and Oak Ridge Cem. These sites, alongside landmarks like McGaw Pond, provide essential spatial context for tracing early family plots and local history within this traditional Midwestern farming region.
