2009 Map of Edgerton

About this map

The community of Edgerton anchors the southeast corner of this landscape, where the town layout meets the headwaters of Martin Creek. This agricultural region is defined by a dense grid of rural roads and numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Old Black Jack Cemetery and Black Jack Cemetery near the historic Black Jack settlement. Further north, the small crossroads of Clearfield sits surrounded by working farms and the winding paths of Captain Creek and its tributaries, such as Wimore Creek. The surveyor's notes indicate a terrain well-drained by several watercourses like Little Wakarusa Creek and Spoon Creek, which carve through the plains. Local landmarks like Konitz Airport and scattered sites such as Adams Cemetery and Pleasant Valley Cemetery provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing early homesteads in the area.
