2018 Map of Cawker City

About this map

Cawker City sits at the northern edge of Waconda Lake in this 2018 survey, where the town’s grid meets the expansive shoreline. The landscape is defined by the drainage of several local waterways including Little Oak Creek, Granite Creek, and Oak Creek, which feed into the reservoir from the north and west. This contemporary map documents the community’s layout, showing local streets from Willow St to Holly St and S 1st Ave. For genealogists and local historians, several rural burial grounds are meticulously noted outside the city limits, including the Saints Peter and Paul Cem and Prairie Grove Cem situated just to the north, as well as the more distant Rooker Cemetery and Reformed Cemetery. The map also clearly delineates the tri-county junction of Jewell, Osborne, and Mitchell counties.
