About this map

Salem Cemetery stands as a focal point for genealogical research in this rural portion of Allen County, marking a site of local heritage amidst an organized grid of section roads. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Coal Creek and Slack Creek, which meander across the prairie terrain. Transportation in the early 21st century relied on a network of state-named routes, including Georgia Rd, Florida Rd, and Delaware Rd, which intersect with numbered north-south corridors like 2000th St and 2400th St. Aviation history is represented by the Croisant Airport, a private or local airstrip located near the center of the survey area. Southward, the map tracks the headwaters and tributaries of Goose Creek and Big Creek, illustrating the natural water distribution that governed historical land use and agricultural development in this Kansas township.
