2010 Map of Bogue

About this map

Bogue serves as the primary settlement in this Western Kansas landscape, situated near the northern edge where Main St anchors the small grid of the town. The geography is defined by the drainage patterns of the South Fork Solomon River, which winds through the northern portion of the quadrangle. Local family history and genealogy are centered on three distinct burial grounds: Fagan Cemetery to the west of town, Wild Horse Cemetery to the south, and Samuels Cemetery further into the interior. These sites, along with the paths of Sand Creek and Wild Horse Creek, trace the rural development of Graham County. The map illustrates a classic Great Plains section-line road network, showing how the land was partitioned for agriculture and grazing around these essential water sources.
