2012 Map of Buckeye

About this map

Buckeye anchors this section of Dickinson County, where the landscape is defined by a strictly surveyed grid of agricultural access roads and the wandering course of Chapman Cr in the northeast. The rural character of the area is underscored by the presence of three distinct burial grounds serving the local farming community: Green Ridge Cem, Henry Cem, and Union Cem. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring township-and-range layout typical of the Kansas plains, with named thoroughfares like Flag Rd and Jeep Rd cutting through the open country. The placement of the cemeteries away from the primary settlement at Buckeye suggests an older pattern of family or neighborhood-centered interments that have persisted even as modern infrastructure like 3300 Ave and Key Rd connects the region.
