2018 Map of Hallowell

About this map

Sherwin and Hallowell sit within the flat expanse of the Cherokee Plains, illustrating the rural agricultural grid of southeast Kansas. This U.S. Geological Survey representation emphasizes the section-line road network that defines local travel, with primary routes like SW Hallowell Rd and NW Bethlehem Rd connecting the scattered communities. Family and community history is anchored by several rural burial grounds, including LaRue Cem and Edgmand Cem, which stand as landmarks in an otherwise open landscape. Waterways such as Cherry Creek and Center Cr meander through the townships, influencing the placement of early homesteads. To the north, the small settlement of Cokedale and the course of Deer Cr provide further context for the region's development during this era of modern mapping.
