2015 Map of Halstead

About this map

The Little Arkansas River meanders through this portion of Harvey County, shaping the agricultural landscape around the city of Halstead. This modern survey reveals a highly organized township grid defined by section-line roads like Co Rd 801 and N Old Settlers Rd, illustrating the persistence of the Public Land Survey System in Kansas. While Halstead serves as the primary municipal center, smaller legacy points such as Alta Mills and Paxton provide important context for the area's rural development. Historical sites are preserved in the landscape at Fairview Pioneer Cem and the Garden Community Church Cem, offering valuable points for genealogical research. Local aviation is represented by Halstead Airport, while the hydrology is dominated by the river and its tributaries, including Black Kettle Cr and N Br Kisiwa Cr.
