You will need your parcel number, also called a Property Index Number or PIN, to find your township. Your real estate tax bill has a 16-digit parcel number. Other documents displaying your parcel number may have 14 or 16 digits. The 14-digit version of the parcel number omits the first two digits, or computer code.

Reed, Custer, and Wesley Townships share two township codes. If you live in either of these three townships, you can either look at your tax bill to find your 16-digit parcel number, or contact us at (815) 740-4648 to determine your Township and your Township Assessor.
If you have a 14-digit parcel number, match the number found in the "14-Digit Parcel Number" column with the first two digits of your parcel number (township number).
If you are using the parcel number found on your tax bill or if you have a 16-digit parcel number in front of you, match the number found in the "16-Digit Parcel Number" column with the first two digits of your parcel number (computer code).
