About this map

Steward and the surrounding agricultural townships of Lee County are mapped here in the early 1990s, revealing a landscape defined by highly localized infrastructure. The presence of multiple small-scale airfields, such as Staton Landing Strip, Ranken Landing Strip, and Thompson Landing Strip, suggests a unique reliance on private aviation within this farming community. These strips, alongside Bresson Airport, are interspersed among established rural centers like Steward and Scarboro.

The terrain is dissected by watercourses including Steward Creek and the Green River, while the southern reaches feature the meandering Willow Creek. Local genealogy and land history are reflected in the dense network of named family roads, such as Gittleson Road, Svela Road, and Mc Girr Road. Near the settlement of Scarboro, the Twin Grove Cem and a local Townhall serve as central community landmarks amidst the fields and Quarries.
