2018 Map of Beech

About this map

Pleasantville anchors the northeast corner of this Marion and Warren County landscape, where the prairie topography is deeply incised by the drainage systems of White Breast Creek and Coon Cr. The 2018 survey reveals a rural structure defined by small settlements like Beech and the community at Caloma, connected by a grid of named local roads such as Jesup Trl and Kirkwood St. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds including Highland Cem, Motor Cem, and Coloma Cem, which sit as quiet landmarks amidst the agricultural plots. The hydrology of the area is distinct, with numerous smaller tributaries like Coal Cr, Fly Cr, and Hawk Run carving through the townships of t76n r22w and t75n r21w.
