2014 Map of Farmers City

About this map

The Iowa Missouri state line bisects this landscape, marking the northern boundary of Atchison Co and the southern edge of Fremont Co. The small settlement of Farmers City serves as a central point in a region dominated by a systematic grid of section lines and gravel roads. This area is defined by its rural cemetery network, which provides significant genealogical markers for the local farming community, including Locust Grove Cemetery, Saint Pauls Lutheran Cemetery, Saint Johns Cemetery, and Grange Hall Cemetery. The terrain is shaped by the drainage patterns of several winding waterways, notably High Creek and Rock Cr, which flow south across the state border. The presence of Middle Tarkio Cr on the eastern edge further illustrates the agricultural value of this well-watered borderland where the township and range system established in the 19th century remains the primary structural framework for the land.
