2009 Map of Elsmore

About this map

Elsmore and Savonburg anchor this rural Allen County landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a series of state-named thoroughfares. The drainage of Big Creek, Mud Creek, and Little Creek creates a winding contrast to the rigid geometry of roads like Hawaii Rd, Florida Rd, and Connecticut Rd. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies two distinct burial sites: the Elsmore Cemetery located just southeast of its namesake town, and the Old Elsmore Cemetery situated further north along 4000th St. This 2009 survey highlights a stable Kansas prairie environment where small-town clusters remain centered around historical transit corridors like N Walnut St in Savonburg.
