2012 Map of Cherokee South

About this map

Cherokee's southern outskirts are defined by a grid of rural section roads and the meandering drainage patterns of the Alfalfa County landscape. This 2012 survey documents the transition from the organized street plan of the town center, including S Ohio Ave and E 10th St, into the surrounding agricultural lands. The map highlights several local interment sites north of town, including Cherokee Municipal Cem, Cherokee Catholic Cem, and Cherokee Cem, which serve as vital reference points for genealogical research in the region. The natural geography is shaped by the complex branching of Clay Cr, which is fed by W Clay Creek and E Clay Creek. These watercourses, along with Lambert Cr, flow through a landscape largely structured by an extensive network of numbered rural roads like E0200 Rd and N2640 Rd, reflecting the enduring township and range system.
