2015 Map of New Lancaster

About this map

New Lancaster and the surrounding rural townships of eastern Kansas are detailed in this contemporary topographic study, showing a landscape defined by traditional section lines and agricultural drainage. Small community centers like Jingo and Louisburg anchor the northern reaches, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by the modern recreational development of Linn Valley, situated along the shores of La Cygne Lake. Local history is preserved in the locations of the New Lancaster Cem, Rockville Cem, and Jingo Cem, which mark the settlement patterns of Miami and Linn counties. The terrain is articulated by several watercourses, including Middle Cr, Elm Cr, and N Sugar Cr, which cut through the undulating prairie. The extensive road network, from established routes like Metcalf Rd to residential lanes such as Timber Valley Dr, illustrates the gradual shift from open farmland to more dense residential pockets near the county line.
