About this map

Burlington serves as the focal point of this Coffey County landscape, where the Neosho River and Wolf Creek converge. The town grid is clearly defined, anchored by the Coffey County Courthouse and a series of residential streets like Kennebec St and Martindale St. To the south and west of the main settlement, several historic burial grounds are preserved, including Mount Hope Cem and Graceland Cem, providing valuable touchstones for genealogical research in the river valley.

The topography is characterized by the broad floodplain of the Neosho, which receives several tributaries such as Rock Cr and Long Cr. Higher ground is marked by Jackrabbit Hill to the northwest, while the rural surrounding area is partitioned by an extensive network of range roads. This modern survey illustrates the persistent importance of the river system to the local geography, alongside more isolated landmarks like Center Hill Cem and Pleasant Hill Cem located at distant rural intersections.
