About this map

Middle Caney Creek and its many tributaries, including Bakers Branch and Pool Creek, define the drainage patterns of this Chautauqua County landscape. The settlement at Rogers and the smaller locality of Gibbs serve as primary points of interest in this predominantly rural area. Local history is anchored by three distinct burial sites: Spring Creek Cemetery, Rogers Cemetery, and Denick Cemetery, providing essential landmarks for genealogical research. The terrain is notably interrupted by Butcher Falls on a southern branch of the creek. A network of rural roads, such as Nation and Lariat, connects various family-run operations like the McCoy Ranch, reflecting the enduring agricultural character of the region. The map also traces the winding paths of Shanghai Creek and Spring Creek as they move through the townships of Quivira and Marshall.
