About this map

Louisburg serves as the focal point of this Eastern Kansas landscape, where the town's northern expansion is clearly visible through a structured grid of streets like W Amity St and N Broadway St. The area's genealogical depth is remarkably well-preserved through a high density of rural burial grounds, including the distinct Louisburg Cem - Old and Louisburg Cem - New, alongside family-named sites such as Reed Cem and Herman Cem. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of South Wea Cr and Rabbit Cr, which carve through the agricultural sections south of the city.

Transportation and recreation infrastructure are integrated into the countryside, with Crosswind Airfield positioned west of the primary north-south highway corridor. To the east of the town center, Louisburg Lake provides a significant water feature near Wildcat Dr. Further south, the map documents the quiet corners of Miami County where Miami Cem and Settle Cem stand near the headwaters of Rodgers Br and Middle Cr, reflecting a long-standing pattern of dispersed rural settlement and cemetery preservation.
