2022 Map of Chautauqua

About this map

Chautauqua Hills define the rolling topography of this Kansas landscape, where the settlements of Chautauqua and Sedan anchor a network of rural roads and drainage basins. The area is marked by a high density of small family or community burial grounds, providing significant data for genealogical research. Locations like Old McClarney Cem, Oak Hill Cem, and Findley Cem are preserved alongside the winding courses of Middle Caney Creek and Little Cedar Cr. This 2022 survey details the modern layout of sections and townships, specifically T34S R11E and T35S R11E, illustrating how historical property lines continue to shape the contemporary landscape. The map captures the meeting of agricultural land and the distinct breaks of the hills, traced by routes such as Frontier Rd and Gallop Rd.
