About this map

Macomb and the surrounding rural townships of Pottawatomie County are defined by a network of creeks and sectional roads in this 21st-century landscape. The area south of the Little River is dotted with small, long-standing settlements such as Tribbey and Burnett, which maintain their identity amidst the rolling terrain of Turkey Hill. The mapping reveals a shift from early agricultural centers to a more dispersed residential pattern, connected by historic routes like Macomb Rd and Rattlesnake Hill Rd.

Genealogists can find significant local markers at Highland Cem and Prospect Cem, situated near the headwaters of Council Cr and Jim Cr. These landmarks, along with the distinct naming of places like Pink and Morvin, provide a clear view of the area's social geography. Water resources remain central to the landscape, from the winding course of Dance Cr to the engineered basins of 12509 Reservoir and 12510 Reservoir.
