About this map

The settlement of Canby anchors this agricultural landscape in Adair County, situated at the intersection of 160th St and Indian Ave. This region is defined by the drainage network of the Middle Nodaway River and its tributaries, including the W Fork Middle Nodaway River and the winding course of Ninemile Cr. The topography reveals the intricate water system of the Iowa plains, where small waterways like Rutt Br and N Turkey Cr carve through the section lines.

For those researching family history in the area, the map identifies several local burial grounds that reflect the township's settlement patterns, such as the Saint Josephs Cem, Oakwood Cem, and the Canby Cem. Further south, the Immanuel Lutheran Cem and Prussia Center Cem stand near the established county road network, which remains largely organized on a traditional grid of numbered streets and named avenues.
