About this map

Butler Center sits near the heart of this landscape, positioned along the north-south axis of Liberty Ave and the meandering path of the West Fork Cedar River. This 2010 survey illustrates the rural township structure typical of the region, where a grid of roads like Butler Center Rd and 245th St connects small communities and agricultural lands. To the north, the town of Allison serves as a primary hub, hosting the Butler County Fairgrounds and the Allison Cemetery.

The hydrography of the area is defined by the Cedar River's drainage basin, with Kilson Creek, McClure Creek, and Johnson Creek cutting through the prairie. For those tracing family history, the map includes several burial grounds including Butler Center Cemetery and the Monroe Township Cemetery. Infrastructure such as Mead Bridge on Jackson Ave highlights the essential crossings that link the scattered farmsteads and rural roads of Butler County.
