2015 Map of Dwight

About this map

The town of Dwight serves as the central hub of this Morris County landscape, where the street grid of Main St, Oak St, and Cypress St meets the open agricultural plains. The terrain is defined by a dense network of intermittent stream branches, including Slough Cr, Munkers Cr, and the converging forks of Short Cr. These waterways create a series of north-south ridges that dictate the placement of the county road system, such as Quaker Rd and Folk Rd. For those tracing local history, the map identifies key burial sites like Dwight Cem and the more isolated Swartz Cem. The geography reveals a classic Kansas section-line development pattern, where the township and range boundaries of t14s r7e and t14s r8e intersect with natural drainage features like Lairds Cr.
