About this map

Labette Creek and the Neosho River define the agricultural landscape of Labette County in this recent survey. The eastern outskirts of Parsons show residential development near Oakwood Cem, while the surrounding prairie remains dominated by a strict sectional grid and scattered rural settlements like Brownstone and Laneville. The southeastern corner of the map features the community of Montana near the riverbanks, an area with deep roots evidenced by the nearby Masonic Cem.

The terrain is marked by the meandering paths of Bachelor Creek and Little Labette Creek, which cut through the flat township sections. Modern aviation is represented by the Diamond H Airport in the southwest, while local genealogy is well-served by the documentation of multiple burial grounds, including Fairview Cem and Franklin Cem. This documentation provides a clear view of the modern rural infrastructure and historical land divisions in southeastern Kansas.
