You might want to look into mile markers on the river. For the IL river,
they should end at the confluence. That should get you within a mile of
where they consider the confluence.

Since there are several islands at the confluence, where the
“confluence” is actually is not exactly clear. Some say it is at
Calhoun Point where the waters meet and some say it is 2 miles
downstream in Grafton after the islands. I cannot find any kind of
“official” definition. I did lots of googling but could not find
anything I would call official or specific enough to determine where
the confluence actually is. Does anyone know of a definition I could
use? Thanks!
