If this location is Township 22 North and Range 13 West, then it is in present day McDonough Co. If you go to the Illinois State Archives at: http://www.sos.state.il.us/depts/archives/arc_home.html and choose Public Domain Land Sales and then the How to Determine Location of Land, you can download a map with all the Townships and Ranges designated. Good Luck!
