2018 Map of Berwick

About this map

Berwick stands as the primary hub of this agricultural landscape in Warren County, where the township grid system dictates the flow of rural life. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Cedar Cr and Slug Run, which break the geometric precision of the section lines. Historically significant sites for genealogists include Silent Home Cem in the northeast and Lenox Union Cem near the western boundary, preserving the names of the families who settled this prairie land. Small clusters of habitation at Ormonde and Phelps represent the scattered nature of local commerce. The map illustrates a well-developed road network, including Co Hwy 15 and Berwick Rd, which link these small farming communities. This survey provides a clear view of the drainage patterns of S Henderson Cr and Negro Cr as they navigate the subtle elevations of the Illinois heartland.
