2018 Map of Augusta

About this map

The confluence of the Whitewater River and the Walnut River anchors the landscape of this Butler County region, where the city of Augusta has expanded into a structured network of residential streets and lakeside developments. The northern reaches of the city are defined by Augusta Lake and newer neighborhoods along Lakeside Dr and Stone Lake Dr, while the southern corridor reflects a long-established history. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Elmwood Cem, Calvary Cem, and the more rural Sutton Cem to the north. To the east, the small settlement of Haverhill sits near the Airpark Estates Airport, illustrating the mix of aviation and agriculture that characterizes this part of Kansas. The river valleys, including the Little Walnut River and Turkey Creek, wind through a grid of section roads like SW Purity Springs Rd and SW Hopkins Switch Rd, marking the persistent agricultural character of the surrounding plains.
