About this map

The Delaware River winds through the rural landscape of this northeastern Kansas region, defining a topography of gentle valleys and upland plateaus. The small settlement of Arrington is positioned near the river banks, while to the west, Larkinburg sits along the county line. This survey captures a quiet, agricultural pocket of the state where Jackson, Atchison, and Jefferson counties meet, a nexus marked by a network of sectional roads and family-named routes like Barton Rd and Sherman Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of regional burial grounds, including the Larkinburg Cem, Miller Cem, and South Denison Cem. The area’s water systems are well-documented, featuring the recreational waters of Nebo Lake alongside tributaries like Elk Cr and Nebo Cr. This modern topographic study provides an exact spatial record of long-established communities and the natural drainage patterns that have shaped their development for generations.
