2012 Map of Williamsville

About this map

Williamsville and Sherman anchor this Central Illinois landscape, which illustrates a blend of historic township roads and modern transit corridors. The village of Williamsville retains its grid iron structure near the intersection of N Old Route 66 and E Main St, while newer developments like Knollwood and Peabody show the 21st-century expansion of residential footprints. Several family and community burial grounds, including Stewart Cem, Bice Cem, and the Kern Cem, are scattered across the agrarian blocks, providing vital markers for genealogists tracing Sangamon County roots. The drainage of the prairie is defined by Wolf Cr and Fancy Cr, while prominent local elevations like Walnut Hill and Mount Fulcher break the level horizon. Transportation history is evident in the transition from local routes like E Logan Co Line Rd to the heavy-duty highway system that now bisects the area.
