2018 Map of Hough NE

About this map

The high plains of Texas County meet the Kansas state line in this 2018 survey, where the landscape is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and intermittent watercourses. Pony Creek meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle, eventually feeding into the Sturdivan Number 1 Reservoir. This region, split between the t6n r14e and t5n r14e townships, reflects a deep-rooted agricultural structure where family history is preserved in small, isolated burial grounds. Genealogists and local historians can find the Barden Memorial Cemetery in the north and the Camp Cemetery further south, both situated near the sparse network of rural roads like County Road 23 and N0820 Road. The map also captures the triple-county intersection where Morton and Stevens counties in Kansas border Oklahoma.
