About this map

The agrarian landscape of Pottawatomie County is defined here by the branching waters of Clear Fork and Bluff Cr. This 2012 survey illustrates a mature rural infrastructure where the section line road grid is punctuated by local heritage sites and named family-linked landmarks. Notable burial grounds, including Mount Hope Cem in the north and Cedar Hill Cem and Berg Cem further south, provide essential points of reference for genealogists tracking early settlers of this Kansas prairie.

Transportation routes such as Parallel Rd and Flint Hill Rd traverse the terrain, crossing smaller tributaries like De Shazer Cr and Jim Cr. The map reflects a stable, modern rural environment, maintaining the traditional survey patterns while identifying specific modern access points like Bobcat Ln and Cyclone Ln. This record captures the precise intersection of natural drainage and human habitation in the early 21st century.
