About this map

Tolonen Cem sits at a high point in this corner of Lincoln County, marking a site of local genealogical interest within a landscape of dry-land agriculture and rolling topography. The survey reveals a grid of rural section roads named for early families, such as Monson Rd, Kuchenbuch Rd, and Schweda Rd, which delineate the farmsteads and field patterns of the region. The drainage of Canniwal Creek winds through the southern reaches of the map, occasionally pooling at Carpenter Lake. This area of Washington is characterized by its organized survey lines and the sparse, purposeful placement of water sources and burial grounds, providing a clear view of how the land has been partitioned and managed into the early 21st century.
