2021 Map of Canistota

About this map

Canistota serves as the central hub of this McCook County landscape, situated atop the Coteau des Prairies upland plateau. The town's grid is well-defined by local landmarks like Main St and Railway Ave, reflecting its orientation toward historic transportation corridors. The surrounding rural acreage is drained by the W Fork Vermillion River, which meanders through the western and southern portions of the quadrangle. For those researching local family history, the map precisely locates three distinct burial sites: Canistota Cem just north of town, Riverside Cem near the river bend, and Rose Hill Cem further south. The landscape is interconnected by a rigid section-line road network, including Co Hwy 9, which maintains the traditional agricultural geometry of the region.
