2015 Map of Dubuque

About this map

Dubuque sits at the junction of the Russell and Barton county line, anchoring a rural landscape defined by a grid of agricultural section roads and quiet creek drainages. This recent survey shows the persistent settlement patterns of the central Kansas plains, where the small community of Hitschmann is located south of the main road network. The map is a valuable resource for genealogists, as it identifies several local burial grounds including Immanuel Cem, Dubuque Cem, and Bethel Cem, which are often the primary remaining physical markers of early area families. Terrain features are largely defined by the meandering courses of Coal Cr and Blood Cr, which cut through the steady rise and fall of the upland plains between Michaelis Rd and Stickney Rd.
