About this map

Rattlesnake Cr meanders through this portion of the Kansas plains, tracing a wandering path across a landscape defined by the rigid section lines of the Public Land Survey System. The area maintains its rural character in the early 21st century, with large agricultural tracts occasionally punctuated by indicators of the region's underlying resources, such as the Fralick South Oil Field. This survey provides valuable coordinates for genealogists and local historians, pinpointing the locations of Bethel Cem in the north and McKinley Cem to the south. These small cemeteries, along with the thoroughfare of Kiowa Co Line Rd, serve as fixed landmarks in a vast prairie environment where natural watercourses and man-made boundaries are the primary features.
