2018 Map of Eskridge

About this map

Eskridge serves as the primary hub of this eastern Kansas landscape, characterized by a well-defined grid of streets such as Bellevue Ave and Locust St. Just northeast of the town center, the Eskridge Cem provides a focal point for genealogical research. The surrounding terrain is a network of drainage basins, with Dragoon Cr and its tributaries like Chicken Cr carving paths through the countryside. To the east, the small settlement of Bradford sits near the headwaters of several streams, including Batch Cr. This 2018 survey illustrates a rural environment where land use is dictated by the intricate hydrology of the region, from the Hungry Hollow valley in the west to the southern reaches of Soldier Cr and Onion Cr. The map captures a section of Wabaunsee County defined by its sprawling section-line roads, which navigate the numerous creek crossings that once supported the area's agricultural development.
