About this map

The industrial and educational landscape of southeastern Kansas is centered on Coffeyville, where the presence of a massive Refinery and a network of competing railroads defined the city's growth. This survey captures a dense educational footprint, showing campuses like Coffeyville College alongside numerous neighborhood institutions including Cleveland Sch, Longfellow Sch, and Whittier Sch. The transportation infrastructure is particularly complex here, with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Missouri Pacific lines converging to move the region's goods.

Outside the urban core, the terrain is marked by the winding Verdigris River and agricultural tracts such as Parker and Canada. Genealogists will find value in the clear demarcation of the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, which bisects the eastern landscape. Local history is further preserved through the documentation of outlying rural landmarks like Kallock Cem, Union Cem, and the Coffeyville Municipal Airport established on the flat plains of Cherokee township.
