About this map

McLouth stands at the center of this landscape, situated near the North Boundary of the historic Old Delaware Reservation. The town is the primary hub of this region, which is marked by a complex network of waterways including Mud Creek, Alexandria Creek, and the winding Ninemile Creek. To the south, the terrain descends toward Leavenworth County State Park, where Lake Tonganoxie and the Leavenworth County State Lake serve as central landmarks.

Evidence of local industry and rural life is scattered across the townships of Union and Tonganoxie, with several Oil Wells and Gas Wells noted. The presence of Stanwood Ch and various local Cemeteries provides essential points for genealogical research. Revisions made in the late 1970s, such as the Sewage Disposal Ponds, indicate the modest infrastructure growth occurring decades after the original mid-century survey.
