2022 Map of Bachelors Run

About this map

Pleasant Hill Cem stands as a central landmark in this portion of Smith County, marking the local heritage of a landscape defined by its network of prairie waterways. The terrain is intricately carved by several streams, including the namesake Bachelors Run and the winding Middle Beaver Cr, which intersect the section lines of Townships 1 and 2 South. The area's organized development is evidenced by a precise grid of rural roads, such as 20 RD through 95 RD, illustrating the systematic land division typical of the Kansas plains. Smaller tributaries like Cottonwood Cr, Calumet Cr, and W Beaver Cr contribute to the drainage patterns of this agricultural region, where the intersection of water resources and transportation routes shaped the early settlement and ongoing land use of the Smith County countryside.
