Fairview Cemetery and Maydale Cemetery sit within the rural uplands north of the Lyon County and Greenwood County line, marking the early settlement of this prairie landscape. The area is defined by a dendritic network of streams that feed the southern drainage, including Harper Creek, Hoosier Creek, and the small tributaries of Tate Branch Creek. These waterways dictate the rugged contours of the terrain before they consolidate toward the Verdigris River in the southwestern corner. Farther east, the Lena Valley Cemetery rests near the headwaters of Halderman Creek, illustrating how early community life followed the high ground between these varied creek valleys. The section-line road grid, including County Road 102 and 390th Street, reflects the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System in this part of eastern Kansas.
