About this map

New Market serves as the primary community in this rural section of Taylor and Page counties, organized around a traditional grid of streets like Main St and Lafayette St. The town is situated on a plateau above the East Nodaway River, which meanders through the western portion of the quadrangle. To the south, the small settlement of Siam anchors the lower township near the junction of several county roads.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites scattered across the agricultural landscape, including Memory Cem, Oak Grove Cem, Vise Cem, and the Aron View Cem. The drainage patterns are defined by the river and Buchanan Cr, which cut through the steady grid of section-line roads like Taylor Page Ave and 240 St. The map reflects a landscape deeply committed to agricultural production, with wide-set farmsteads and a dense network of local routes connecting the various townships.
