2021 Map of Greenfield

About this map

Greenfield serves as the primary hub of this west-central Illinois landscape, where a dense network of country roads connects scattered farmsteads across the Greene County line into Macoupin and Jersey counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Macoupin Creek and its many tributaries, including Taylor Cr and Hodges Cr, which create a complex system of wooded draws and bluffs. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in family history landmarks, featuring a high concentration of rural burial grounds such as Rubicon Cem, Hermitage Cem, Oakwood Cem, and Rose Hill Cem. The southern portion of the sheet transitions into the community of Rockbridge, situated near the confluence of local waterways. This 2021 update maintains the clear delineation of section lines and property boundaries, revealing how the historic township structure continues to influence the modern agricultural layout.
