Schuyler County, Administrative division in West Central Illinois, United States
Schuyler County extends across western Illinois with agricultural lands, small communities, and a network of local roads connecting its thirteen townships.
The county, established in 1825, received its name from Philip Schuyler, a Major General who fought in the French and Indian Wars and American Revolution.
The Schuyler Jail Museum in Rushville maintains an extensive genealogical collection and exhibits that document pioneer life from the county's founding in 1828.
The County Clerk's office in Rushville manages vital records, election administration, tax assessments, and provides passport application services for residents.
