2022 Map of Dwight

About this map

Dwight sits at the northern edge of Morris County, established along a grid of streets including Main St and Cypress St. The surrounding landscape is defined by the branching headwaters of several creek systems that drain the undulating terrain of the eastern Kansas plains. To the north, W Br Mill Cr and W Br Humboldt Cr flow toward the Geary County line, while Munkers Cr and Slough Cr carve paths through the central and southern sections of the quadrangle. For those researching local families, the map identifies three distinct burial sites: Dwight Cem just north of the town site, Swartz Cem situated near D Ave, and Kelso Cem at the southern boundary. The network of section-line roads, such as Quaker Rd and Wandersee Rd, illustrates a persistent rural land pattern typical of the region's agricultural development.
