About this map

Gypsum serves as the primary hub in this Saline County landscape, where a grid of rural roads connects the surrounding prairie and agricultural tracts. The town itself is finely detailed, showing a street plan including King St, Gypsum St, and Maple St. The area's topography is defined by the winding paths of several waterways, most notably the Gypsum Cr and its tributaries like W Br Gypsum Cr and McAllister Cr.

Genealogists will find significant local-history value in the placement of several burial grounds scattered throughout the township, including Saint Patrick Cem to the south and Gypsum Cem located west of the town center. The presence of Chapel Hill Cem near the confluence of Hobbs Cr and Gypsum Cr further anchors the rural community's history to specific family-named landmarks and early parish locations.
