About this map

Drexel sits at the northern edge of this landscape, straddling the state line where Missouri meets Kansas. This 2017 survey details the rural borderland between Cass and Bates counties, where the town layout includes historic thoroughfares like E Cass St and Ethel St. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Miami Cr and Mormon Fork, which weave between agricultural plots and small water bodies such as Drexel Lake and May Lake.

South of the main settlement, the smaller community of Merwin serves as a local hub near E State Rte 18. For those researching family history or local landmarks, the map identifies several burial grounds including Sharon Cem, Edgewood Cem, and West Point Cem. The presence of Drexel City Reservoir S and numerous small branches like Willow Br and Plum Br illustrate the water management essential to this prairie-border region.
