1989 Map of Plymouth

About this map

The Cottonwood River meanders sharply across this landscape, defining the topography of western Lyon County near the Chase County line. The small settlement of Plymouth sits just north of the river, while the community of Toledo appears further west. This area serves as a significant transportation corridor, where the Kansas Turnpike and a Toll Road parallel a heavy rail line marked as 3 Tracks. Local history is anchored by several rural landmarks, including the Saffordville Ch and Cottonwood Ch, as well as family-oriented burial grounds like Haworth Cem and Hillside Cem. In the northeastern corner, the Neosho River flows past the edge of Americus, highlighting the region's reliance on these major waterways for drainage and early development.
