About this map

New Point sits at the heart of this rural landscape, positioned amidst the rolling agricultural terrain of Holt County. The area is defined by its numerous small burial grounds and watercourses, reflecting a long-standing pattern of family farming and local community centers. Significant local genealogy markers include Fairview Cem, Cowan Cem, and Nichols Grove Cem, which are scattered throughout the countryside near State Hwy B and State Hwy H.

Water management and natural drainage are central to the geography here, with the Nodaway River forming a prominent boundary to the east. The landscape is further carved by Nichols Cr, Hickory Cr, and Arapahoe Cr. Private water features like Cain Farm Lake and Glen Meyer Lake indicate localized land use, while the surveyor's grid of roads like Raintree Dr and Traders Dr provide a clear look at modern property divisions in this Missouri river valley region.
