About this map

The Neosho River meanders through this portion of Neosho and Allen Counties, its fertile floodplains protected by a series of levees. The landscape is defined by the industrial and agricultural hub of Chanute, where the intersection of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and Missouri - Kansas - Texas railroads spurred significant mid-century growth. Beyond the city center, a dense network of country schools like Prairie Queen Sch, Cottage Grove Sch, and Leanna Sch reflects the historical distribution of small farming communities across the prairie.
