2018 Map of Nortonville

About this map

Nortonville and the surrounding farmland of central Illinois sit at the intersection of Morgan, Greene, and Macoupin counties in this recent survey. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Apple Cr and its tributaries, including Little Apple Cr and Mooney Br, which cut through the agricultural grid. For local historians, the map is remarkably dense with family and community landmarks, particularly small cemeteries that anchor the rural landscape. From the Youngblood Cem near the heart of Nortonville to the Whitlock Cem and Zion Number One Cem further south, these sites offer a clear record of the area's ancestral settlements. The northern reaches show the proximity of Woodson and the Murrayville Woodson Lake, while the southern border tracks the transition into Greene County near the Ceres Cem.
