About this map

Jamestown serves as the primary hub of this north-central Kansas landscape, with its residential grid structured around streets like Walnut St and Spruce St. The surrounding terrain in Cloud County is defined by a dense network of watercourses and agricultural drainage, most notably the meandering path of Buffalo Creek and the significant Salt Marsh to the northeast. To the east, the smaller settlement of Yuma sits along Shell Rd.

Family historians will find several points of interest scattered across the sections, including Fairview Cem near the eastern border and West Summit Cem positioned further south. The map reveals the intricate rural road system, from Rock Rd to Plum Rd, which connects isolated farmsteads across the township boundaries of t5s r5w and t6s r4w. Subtle geographic features like Whites Cr and W Br Wolf Cr provide further detail for those tracing ancestral land holdings in this prairie region.
