2022 Map of Coronado Cemetery

About this map

Wichita County’s High Plains landscape is defined by a rigorous section-line road network and isolated markers of early prairie settlement. This 2022 survey of the Coronado Cemetery quadrangle reveals an area primarily dedicated to agriculture, where the geometry of Co Rd G and Co Rd N crisscrosses the terrain at precise one-mile intervals. These roads, including the north-south artery of N 4th St, provide the only formal navigation across a land surface sculpted by subtle drainage patterns and seasonal wetlands. For those tracing the human geography of the region, the map preserves the locations of two quiet landmarks: Pleasant Valley Cem in the northeastern reaches and Coronado Cem further south. These sites remain the primary cultural anchors in a landscape that otherwise emphasizes the scale of modern industrial farming and the endurance of the township and range system.
