About this map

Goehner serves as the primary hub of this Seward County agricultural landscape, featuring the Goehner Post Office and nearby community markers. The surrounding sections are defined by a network of drainage systems, most notably the West Fork Big Blue River at the southern edge and several branches of North Branch Crooked Creek and South Branch Crooked Creek carving through the plains. Local water management is evident at the Centerfield Reservoir and the Ebers-Eberspacher Dam, which regulate the flow in this prairie environment.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial grounds, including Perry Mound Cemetery to the north, Old Salem Cemetery to the east, and Walnut Creek Cemetery situated near its namesake waterway. The map captures the classic Midwestern section-line road grid, from Fletcher Rd to Old Cheney Rd, illustrating the persistence of early land division patterns into the 21st century.
