2018 Map of Shawnee

About this map

The North Canadian River flows eastward through this portion of Pottawatomie County, separating the regional center of Shawnee from the historic seat of Tecumseh to the south. This area demonstrates a dense network of local history and religious heritage, anchored by institutions such as Saint Gregory's Abbey Cem and Saint Benedict Cem on the western edge of the city. The landscape transitions from the urbanized grids of Shawnee, featuring landmarks like the Shawnee Regional Airport, to more rural outskirts including Bethel Acres and the area near Gaddy. To the south, Tecumseh is bounded by the shores of Tecumseh Lake and the winding course of Squirrel Creek. Family and community researchers will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, ranging from the large Fairview Cem to the outlying New Hope Cem along New Hope Road.
