About this map

New Windsor serves as the central hub of this agricultural region where Mercer, Henry, and Knox Counties meet. The village is organized around a traditional street grid including Main St and State St, surrounded by several historic burial grounds such as New Windsor Cem and Calvary Cem. To the east, the settlement of Alpha sits near the county line, while the smaller hamlets of Ophiem and Griffin occupy the northern reaches of the quadrangle.

The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of North Pope Creek and Pope Creek, which cut through the prairie to create a more varied topography in the southern half of the map. Local transit is rooted in an extensive network of range and township roads, including the notable Knoxville Trl and Piper Hills Corral Rd, which provide access to the farmsteads and rural properties that have defined this Illinois borderland for generations.
