2021 Map of Macon West

About this map

Moweaqua and Blue Mound anchor this agricultural landscape in Central Illinois, where the borders of Macon, Christian, and Shelby counties converge. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Mosquito Cr and Spring Cr in the north, transitioning to the headwaters of Long Grove Cr and Willow Br toward the south. The rural character of the region is punctuated by numerous family and fraternal burial grounds, providing significant points of interest for genealogical research. These include the Independent Order of Oddfellows Cem near Moweaqua and the Adams Gorden Cem located centrally between the larger settlements.
