2021 Map of Plymouth

About this map

Plymouth sits at the convergence of three counties in Western Illinois, serving as a central hub in a landscape defined by its creek systems and rural cemeteries. The area shows a deliberate pattern of settlement along the waterways, where the La Moine River winds through the northern section and Bronson Creek cuts across the center. Small communities like Saint Mary and Colmar are connected by a network of rural routes, including CO Hwy 6 and St Marys Rd. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites scattered across the township, from the Rosemont Cem in town to more isolated locations like Trimble Cem, Irwin Cem, and Bowman Cem. The southern reach of the map is dominated by the waters of Augusta Lake and Flour Cr, reflecting the drainage patterns that have shaped the agricultural development of Hancock, McDonough, and Schuyler counties.
