About this map

The settlement of Dubuque sits along the dividing line between Russell and Barton counties, serving as a focal point for this agrarian landscape in central Kansas. The region is defined by a grid of rural section roads, including Dubuque Ellsworth Rd and Michaelis Rd, which connect dispersed homesteads and local landmarks. To the south, the community of Hitschmann marks the lower portion of the map, situated near the drainage of Coal Cr.

Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of several rural burial grounds, such as Dubuque Cem, Immanuel Cem, and Bethel Cem, which anchor the histories of the local families who settled these plains. The terrain is subtly shaped by the winding courses of Blood Cr and its tributaries, which break the geometric precision of the township and range survey lines that otherwise dominate the geography.
