About this map

Dragoon Creek and Hundred and Ten Mile Creek converge in this section of Osage County, where the plains are defined by a complex network of prairie waterways. The small communities of Lyndon Station and Vassar anchor the southern portion of the sheet, reflecting the rural settlement patterns typical of eastern Kansas. Transport and aviation are centered around Pomona Lake Airport, which sits north of the winding course of Dragoon Creek.

Genealogists can find local landmarks like Highland Cemetery set among the section-line roads, including S Lewelling Rd and Fairlawn Rd. The landscape is etched with smaller tributaries such as Popcorn Creek, Wolf Creek, and Opossum Creek, illustrating the natural drainage toward the larger valley. The grid-like road system, featuring routes like W 181st St and W 237th St, provides a clear view of the area's agricultural organization during the early twenty-first century.
