2009 Map of Osawatomie

About this map

Osawatomie sits at the northern edge of this landscape where the Pottawatomie Creek meets the Marais des Cygnes River. The town's grid is bounded by Main St and South St, showing a developed core that contrasts with the surrounding agricultural land. To the south, the smaller settlement of Beagle occupies a crossroads along Plum Creek Rd, while the name Bangor appears to the east of the main river valley. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Hushpuckney Creek, Middle Creek, and Mound Creek, which drain into the larger river system. Local history and genealogy are anchored by rural landmarks such as Whiteford Cemetery in the northeast and Mound Creek Cemetery in the southwest, reflecting the long-established burial sites of Miami County families.
