About this map

Lebanon serves as the central hub of this Smith County landscape, characterized by a regular grid of section lines and watercourses. The town's layout is clearly defined by streets such as Main St, Elm St, and S Railway Ave, reflecting its orientation toward the regional transportation network. The surrounding prairie is dissected by numerous drainages, including White Rock Creek and Porcupine Creek, which dictate the local topography.

For genealogists and local historians, the placement of rural burial sites provides significant insight into early settlement patterns. Salem Cemetery sits in the far northeast, while Oak Hill Cemetery and Price Cemetery are located west of the town center. This documentation of the land near the turn of the 21st century preserves the locations of these family and community landmarks amidst the agricultural expanses of north-central Kansas.
