Another jail museum located in a very small town in the middle of nowhere
in Illinois (yes, my hometown):
Schuyler County Jail Museum
200 S. Congress St.
Rushville, IL 62681
217-322-6975
Located in 1857 county jail with museum & library facilities attached. They
do quite a bit with the local community--providing tours, promoting
historical town anniversaries, etc.
