2012 Map of Liebenthal

About this map

The Smoky Hill River meanders across the northern portion of this Ellis County landscape, a vital watercourse for the agrarian communities of Schoenchen and Liebenthal. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring grid of the High Plains, where section-line roads like Chetolah Gold Rd and Smoky Hill River Rd define the territory. The map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, documenting local parish history at Saint Anthony Cem and Saint Joseph Cem. Topographical features such as Lookout Hollow and the drainage of Big Timber Cr provide a clear view of the natural relief that breaks the horizon south of the river. The small-town infrastructure is centered on landmarks such as the local Post Office in Liebenthal, connected by a network of county highways including Co Hwy-44 and Co Hwy-507.
