2013 Map of Eads

About this map

Eads serves as the focal point of this high plains landscape in Kiowa County, situated at the intersection of Us-287 N and Co-96. The town grid is clearly defined by local thoroughfares such as Maine St, Wansted St, and Luther St, reflecting a traditional agricultural hub layout. Genealogists and local historians can distinguish between the Eads Cem and the Eads Old Cem, located just south of the main settlement area near the Eads Municipal Airport. The surrounding terrain is characterized by the ephemeral drainage of Kiowa Cr, which winds through the eastern portion of the survey. The presence of Kiowa Spring further east suggests a vital water source in this semi-arid region, while a dense network of section-line roads, including Co Road S and Co Road N, illustrates the orderly division of the surrounding prairie for ranching and farming operations.
