Edwards River (Illinois)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Edwards River is a tributary of the Mississippi River, about 75 mi (120 km) long[1] in northwestern Illinois in the United States. It rises 3 mi (5 km) west of Kewanee in southeastern Henry County and flows generally westwardly into Mercer County, where it joins the Mississippi 2 mi (3 km) southeast of New Boston. In Henry County it collects the South Edwards River, which flows past Bishop Hill.
Several sections of the Edwards River's course have been straightened and channelized.
