We have RHEL 7 with Python-3.5 installed from source (standard config, make, make install method). How do I go about removing this from the system? I don't see any built-in uninstall features. My Google-fu seems to be failing me on this one. Thanks in advance.
Try make uninstall

There is no make uninstall available for this. Like is said, I see no built-in uninstall options.
try checkinstall. Although im not sure if that will help after already install via make.

Also what system are you on?

you can also find the location of the associated python paths via sys.path
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/usr/local/lib/python36.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python3.6', '/usr/local/lib/python3.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages']
