About this map

Brazilton and the southern settlement of Greenbush anchor this Crawford County landscape, where the agricultural grid of the Kansas plains is defined by section lines and family-named landmarks. The area's social history is preserved in its numerous rural burying grounds, including Brazilton Cem, Lutheran Cem, and the Spangler Pleasant Valley Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community's early development and heritage.

Waterways like Lightning Cr, Elm Cr, and Hickory Cr meander through the townships, breaking the regularity of the road network and providing natural drainage for the surrounding farmlands. This modern survey reflects a landscape that has maintained its rural character for over a century, with a dense network of local roads such as W 650th Ave and N 90th St connecting isolated farmsteads and historic church sites.
