2018 Map of Shaw

About this map

The Neosho River meanders across this Neosho County landscape, joined by its tributaries including Elk River and Canville Cr. This 2018 survey reveals the persistent agricultural grid of the region, anchored by the settlement of Shaw and the western edge of Erie. The map is particularly useful for genealogists, as it identifies several small rural burial grounds that speak to the area's early farmstead history, including Shaw Cem, South Valley Cem, Grant Brown Cem, and Lakeview Cem. The terrain is defined by a network of sectional roads such as Ottawa Rd and Pratt Rd, which follow the township boundaries of t28s r19e and t29s r20e. Several smaller watercourses, including Pecan Cr, Rock Cr, and Ogeese Cr, carve through the landscape, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped Neosho County's land use for generations.
