The marker is located in Raleigh, 0.35 mile east of IL 34 at the intersection of Main and Church Streets. It is on the north side of the street, across from the old bank.

Two hundred feet east of here was the Ingersoll law office. Ebon Clark Ingersoll and Robert Green Ingersoll, his younger brother, before they moved to Peoria, had a successful law practice in the Saline County Circuit Court which met in Raleigh, the first county seat of Saline County, 1847-1859.
