About this map

The Neosho River snakes through this Kansas landscape, anchoring the city of Iola and the smaller settlement of Carlyle. This 2012 survey illustrates the civic and academic infrastructure of the region, prominently featuring the Allen Community Coll campus and the expansive Allen County Fairgrounds. The local geography is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Coon Cr, Elm Cr, and Deer Cr, which feed into the primary river valley.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established burial grounds like Iola Cem and Carpenter Cem. The map also captures the recreational and industrial margins of the community, from the Cedarbrook Golf Course to the Allen County Airport at the southern edge. The gridded road system, often named for other states like Rhode Island Rd and Oregon Rd, reflects the systematic land divisions typical of the Great Plains.
