About this map

Princeville serves as the primary population center on this Peoria County prairie, situated just south of the Stark Co line. The town's layout is defined by a traditional grid, bordered by several burial grounds including Princeville Township Cem and the Apostolic Christian Cem. This 2021 landscape is dominated by a systematic road network, where rural routes like W Streitmatter Rd and N Elliott Rd connect smaller outlying settlements such as Monica and Duncan.

Waterways like the Spoon River and Indian Cr carve through the agricultural expanse, crossed by notable landmarks like the Slackwater Bridge. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating numerous small, family-named or historic cemeteries scattered throughout the townships, such as Walliker Cem, Stringtown Cem, and Schiebel Cem, which provide clues to early settlement patterns in this part of Illinois.
