About this map

Canton serves as the central hub of this McPherson County landscape, situated at the intersection of Main St and Kansas Ave. The settlement pattern follows a grid of numbered streets and avenues, including Allen and Grove, while several historic burial grounds like the Canton Township Cem, Oakes Cem, and Jones Cem are distributed across the surrounding sections.

The hydrology of the region is defined by a network of drainage systems, with the N Cottonwood River appearing in the eastern reaches. Numerous seasonal and permanent waterways like Running Turkey Cr, Battle Cr, and S Gypsum Cr carve through the terrain. A series of named roads, including Quivera Rd and Mohawk Rd, reflect the cultural history of the area and provide the primary framework for contemporary navigation and property boundaries.
