Augusta is a small town in west central Illinois. The town sign is located on the east side as we are entering on Illinois State Route 101.
Augusta was founded in 1832 by Joel Catlin and W.D. Abernathy, who was the village's first postmaster. Catlin named Augusta after having a memorable visit to Augusta, Georgia.
