2015 Map of Alden

About this map

The town of Alden sits in the northern section of this survey, organized around a traditional grid that includes Pioneer St and 4th St. The surrounding landscape is defined by the significant meanders of the Arkansas River, which flows through the center of the sheet, joined by smaller tributaries like Salt Creek and Peace Cr. The terrain reflects the agricultural character of central Kansas, partitioned by an extensive section-line road network such as Jordan Springs Rd and Huntsville Rd. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the placement of the Peace Valley Cem, located south of the river. The map also delineates the political boundary of Rice Co Reno Co, marking where the southern agricultural fields transition across the county line.
