2009 Map of Bucklin NW

About this map

The Arkansas River flows through the southern section of this Ford County landscape, defining the local topography alongside Coon Creek to the north. This 2009 survey reveals a strictly organized rural grid system, where long-established burial grounds like Pleasant Valley Cemetery and Ford Cemetery serve as fixed points of reference for genealogists and local historians. The road network is particularly evocative of the area's heritage, featuring named routes such as Outlaw Rd, Quaker Rd, and Saddle Side Rd. These corridors, including Marshall Rd and Tilman Rd, connect the dispersed agricultural holdings across the Kansas plains, illustrating the enduring spatial logic of the region's land divisions into the early 21st century.
