About this map

Pawnee serves as the central point for this agricultural region straddling the border between Iowa and Missouri. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Wolf Cr and W Fork Big Cr, which have carved the landscape into a series of ridges and valleys. This 2014 survey reveals a sparse settlement pattern dominated by the township and range system, with gravel roads like W 150th St and 290th St providing the primary transit routes across the state line.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds distributed across the landscape, reflecting the heritage of early families who farmed these hills. Sites such as Mount Zion Cemetery, Patrick Cemetery, Hollen Cemetery, Payne Cemetery, and Brown Cemetery are preserved in their rural settings, offering a tangible link to the communities established along the Little Cr and Shain Cr drainages. The map provides a clear record of the jurisdictional boundaries where Ringgold Co meets Harrison Co at the state line.
