1989 Map of Zimmerdale

About this map

Emma Creek and its many branches, including West Emma Creek, Middle Emma Creek, and East Emma Creek, define the drainage patterns of this Harvey County landscape. The map shows the northern outskirts of Newton and the small settlement of Zimmerdale, situated near a bend in the water and a dedicated Roadside Park. This late-20th-century survey documents a region defined by its agricultural layout and spiritual landmarks, with several family and community burial grounds scattered across the townships of Emma and Macon. Genealogists will find notable value in the precisely marked Church of God Cem, Royer Cem, and the Emma Restlawn Garden of Memory Cem. Along the southern margin, the Arkansas River flows past the Halstead Cem, while local industry is represented by a Gravel Pit and several municipal utilities.
