The village of Steward sits at the northern end of this Lee County landscape, centered at the intersection of Main St, Steward St, and John St. In the southern reaches, the small settlement of Scarboro and the crossroads at Twelvemile Corner punctuate a vast agricultural grid defined by family-named routes such as Gittleson Rd, Rochelle Rd, and German Rd. This 2021 survey illustrates a region where localized air travel and heritage are prominent, evidenced by numerous private airstrips like Durin RLA Airport and Hep Cats Airport. The terrain is drained by several waterways, including the Green River, Steward Cr, and Willow Creek, while local history is preserved at sites like Saint Marys Twin Grove German Cem and Steward Cem.
