2018 Map of Dover

About this map

The community of Dover sits at the northern edge of this 2018 survey, positioned where SW Douglas Rd meets SW 57th St. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Wakarusa River and its various tributaries, including the Middle Br Wakarusa River, which flow through the southern portion of the quadrangle. Local heritage and family history are tied to the grounds of Dover Cem and Saint Bartholomew Cem, while the natural topography is marked by distinct features such as Gladden Ravine and Mission Creek. The map documents a rural network of roads like Harveyville Blacktop Rd and Mission Valley Rd, crossing the boundary between Wabaunsee Co and Shawnee Co. This detail provides a clear view of the area's modern agricultural and residential layout, preserving the placement of creek crossings and local cemeteries.
