2015 Map of Galatia

About this map

The Smoky Hill River cuts across the northwestern corner of this Kansas landscape, defining a terrain of draws and creek beds that feed into Landon Cr. Centered on the boundary between Russell and Barton counties, the area is anchored by the small settlement of Galatia, where Railroad Ave and Fairview Cem mark the local community's footprint. The map captures a largely agricultural region characterized by a strict grid of section roads, including NW 230 Rd and Stickney Rd. Genealogy researchers will find several localized burial sites scattered throughout the townships, such as Milberger Cem near the community of Milberger and the isolated Trinity Cem in the north. These landmarks, along with the quiet siding of Millard, reflect the persistent but sparse settlement patterns of the central Kansas plains in the early 21st century.
