History

The Berryville community formed near the Bonpas Creek, which moved grains, timber, and other natural resources from the river downstream, but eventually the countryside was cleared of trees, and erosion filled the creek’s channel with silt, making barge traffic to the area obsolete [ [http://www.berryvillevineyards.com/History%20of%20Berryville.htm Berryville Vineyards.] Retrieved on February 13 2008] .

Currently, the community maintains the Berryville Christian Church and the Berryville Community Center. In 2003 Berryville Vineyards began selling locally grown wines [ [http://www.berryvillevineyards.com/About%20Us.htm Berryville Vineyards.] Retrieved on February 13 2008] . Berryville's community center hosts two major events each year. The Osmon Fox Hunters Association Field Trial and Bench Show exhibits coonhound dogs annually over the Fourth of July holiday [ [http://www.ifhd.net/html/event_calendar.html Illinois Federation of Hunting Dogs.] Retrieved on February 13 2008] .
