2012 Map of Freeport

About this map

Freeport serves as the primary hub of activity in this Harper County landscape, organized along a small grid of streets including Main St, 1st St, and 2nd St. The town center includes a local Post Office and is bordered by agricultural fields defined by an extensive section-line road network. The surrounding prairie is drained by several waterways, most notably the Chikaskia River in the northeast corner and the meandering courses of Sand Creek, Fall Creek, and Spring Branch. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Freeport Cemetery and the more remote H and S Cemetery provides valuable spatial context for late 19th and early 20th-century family records. Modern infrastructure is also present, marked by the Argonia Wastewater Treatment Facility situated along the northern riverbank.
