2018 Map of Kackley

About this map

The Republican River winds through this agricultural landscape on the border of Republic and Cloud Counties. The small community of Norway sits near the riverbanks, while the settlement of Kackley is positioned to the west in an area defined by the drainage systems of Beaver Cr and Skunk Cr. This territory is characterized by its rural heritage, anchored by several longstanding religious and burial sites that serve as primary landmarks for local history and genealogy. Notable sites include the Ada Lutheran Church Cem and the Danish Lutheran Cem, reflecting the ethnic and denominational patterns of the early settlers. A network of rural roads, such as Republic Rd and Wagon Rd, connects these scattered farmsteads and cemeteries like Oakdale Cem and Saron Baptist Cem, illustrating the enduring spatial organization of this Kansas prairie land.
