2015 Map of Altamont

About this map

Altamont serves as the central hub for this portion of Labette County, organized around a traditional grid with streets such as Wabash Ave, Illinois Ave, and High School Ave. The surrounding rural landscape is defined by the Section Land Survey System, with an extensive network of named roads like Jackson Rd and Meade Rd framing agricultural tracts. Watercourses including Deer Cr and Richland Cr wind through the township, influencing the placement of several smaller burial sites. For genealogists and local historians, the distribution of rural cemeteries such as Hopewell Cem, Vance Cem, Elston Cem, and Wooden Cem offers significant insight into the historical settlement patterns and family lineages of the region during the early 21st century.
