2018 Map of Kinross

About this map

Kinross and the smaller community of Nira anchor this agricultural landscape along the border of Keokuk and Washington counties. The terrain is defined by a network of waterways including the South English River in the north and the winding course of Smith Cr through the center. This survey documents the rectilinear section line road system, which is interrupted only by the natural drainage of W Fork Crooked Cr and its tributaries. Local history is grounded in several burial grounds, including Fairview Cem, Bunker Hill Cem, and Center Cem, providing valuable touchpoints for genealogists tracing family roots in Liberty and English River townships.
