2012 Map of Aliceville

About this map

Aliceville anchors this part of Coffey County, sitting at the junction of Wayside Rd and 9th Road. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Silver Cr and Crooked Cr, which drain the agricultural tablelands of eastern Kansas. For genealogists and local historians, the area is notably dense with small burial grounds, including Altamont Cem located just east of the main settlement and Saint Johns Cem to the northwest. The drainage patterns of Badger Cr and Bowmans Br break up the regular grid of section-line roads, such as Underwood Rd and Xeric Rd SE, which provide the primary framework for this rural community. The concentration of multiple cemeteries like Quisling Cem and Star Cem suggests a long-standing pattern of family-centered rural settlement across this terrain.
