About this map

The town of Greenleaf stands as a central hub in this Washington County landscape, defined by a grid of streets including 1st St, 2nd St, and the tellingly named Rail Blvd. The surrounding countryside is primarily agricultural, yet it is deeply punctuated by the spiritual and ancestral markers of the community. Five distinct burial grounds, including Sacred Heart Cemetery near the town center and Maplewood Cemetery to the northeast, provide significant touchpoints for genealogical research.

Drainage throughout the township is managed by a network of waterways like Beaver Creek and Coon Creek, which meander across the rural sections. To the east, the edge of Barnes appears, connected to the primary settlement by a rectilinear system of section-line roads such as 10th Rd and Xavier Rd. The map also preserves the route of Wagon Train Rd, a name that evokes the earlier transit history of the Kansas plains.
