2011 Map of Ashley East

About this map

Ashley serves as the primary hub of this prairie landscape, situated near the intersection of a strictly gridded section-line road network. The town's layout is meticulously detailed, showing the street grid from Center Ave N to 3rd Ave NE. To the south, the Ashley Municipal Airfield provides a modern link to this agrarian region, while the local geography is defined by numerous glacial depressions. Prominent water bodies such as Kislingburg Lake and Salt Lake dot the terrain, illustrating the hydrologic character of the Missouri Coteau region. For those researching family history, both Ashley Cemetery and the more remote Emmans Cemetery are documented in their exact locations relative to the township lines. The survey also traces the path of several rural routes, including 50th Ave SE and 93rd St SE, which provide the backbone for the surrounding farmsteads.
