About this map

Hanston serves as the primary hub of this Hodgeman County landscape, situated at the confluence of local commerce and transport where Spearville Rd meets Main St. The town center includes the local Po and is bordered to the north by the meandering path of Buckner Cr. To the west, the Saint Anthony Cem provides a point of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in this rural pocket of Kansas.

Energy production is a defining characteristic of the surrounding plains, evidenced by the Hanston-Oppy Southeast Oil Field, the Lippoldt Oil Field, and the Saw Log Creek Oil Field. The southern portion of the map is marked by the crossing of Saw Log Cr, where two distinct river crossings, Osborne Bridge and Orwell Bridge, connect the remote settlement of Orwell to the broader regional road network.
