1971 Map of Canby

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Canby sits at the center of this Adair County landscape, where the rural sections of Summit, Walnut, Eureka, and Prussia townships converge. This 1971 survey captures the region's agricultural character, defined by a network of section-line roads and several established burial grounds including St Josephs Cem and Oakwood Cem in the north and Prussia Cem in the south. The drainage of the Middle Nodaway River and Ninemile Creek carves across the terrain, reflecting the natural geography that dictated local land use for generations. Institutional life is marked by the Highland Ch, while modern infrastructure appears at the top of the sheet with the Sewage Disposal Ponds and a highway Rest Area, signaling the influence of regional transit on this traditionally quiet farming community.
