2012 Map of Heyworth

About this map

Heyworth serves as the central hub of this McLean County landscape, where the local street grid intersects with regional transit corridors. The village is surrounded by a dense network of burial grounds that offer significant genealogical value, including Heyworth Cem, Saint Patricks Cem, and the Old Rutledge Cem. This distribution of cemeteries, many associated with early family names or vanished congregations like Shiloh Cem and Passwater Cem, indicates a long-settled agricultural community. The terrain is defined by a series of southwest-flowing waterways, most notably Kickapoo Cr and Long Point Cr, which carve through the prairie. While the economy remains deeply rooted in the soil, specialized aviation markers such as Lytleville Orchard Airport and the Quinton Landing Strip reflect modern land use in this rural Illinois corridor between Bloomington and Clinton.
