About this map

Florence anchors this portion of Marion County, situated along a prominent bend of the Cottonwood River where several regional transportation routes converge. The township grid is defined by a systematic network of roads like Wagonwheel Rd and Upland Rd, which overlay a landscape carved by the meandering courses of Spring Cr and Turkey Crk.

For researchers and genealogists, the map identifies specific burial sites including Mount Calvary Cem and Allison Cem. Water sources, critical for early settlement and agriculture in this Kansas prairie region, are specifically marked at Coyne Spring and Lee Spring. The presence of the Po in the center of town highlights the community's role as a local service hub for the surrounding agricultural tracts.
