2022 Map of Heizer

About this map

The settlement of Heizer anchors the southeastern portion of this Barton County landscape, situated where the local road network of Main St and Bend Ave meets the prairie. This region is defined by its agrarian structure and the winding courses of Walnut Cr and Dry Walnut Cr, which meander through the central and southern sections. For genealogists and local historians, the map is a significant record of rural community landmarks, preserving the locations of Saint Anthony Cem in the northwest, Patterson Cem in the southwest, and both Clarence Township Cem and Everett Cem to the south. The precise grid of section lines, including NW 120 Ave and NW 90 Rd, illustrates the enduring Public Land Survey System that has shaped this Kansas territory since the nineteenth century.
