2010 Map of Caldwell NW

About this map

The Chikaskia River meanders across this northern Sumner County landscape, defining the local drainage patterns alongside tributaries such as Spring Creek and Shore Creek. In this region of Kansas, the traditional agricultural grid is intersected by the legacy of energy extraction, most notably at the Walta Oil Field and the Yarnell Oil and Gas Field. These industrial footprints are balanced by quiet local landmarks like the Morris Center Cemetery, which serves as a significant touchstone for genealogical research in the area. The map illustrates a developed network of rural routes, including S Milan Rd and S Conway Springs Rd, which connect scattered homesteads and facilitate access to the surrounding creek beds such as Jordan Creek and East Branch Fall Creek.
