2012 Map of Madison NE

About this map

The Verdigris River flows through the southern portion of this Lyon County landscape, where a grid of rural roads and township highways defines the agricultural character of the region. The map reveals a network of small watercourses, including Halderman Cr and Hoosier Cr, that drain the surrounding fields. This 2012 survey provides valuable location data for genealogists and local historians, specifically marking the locations of Maydale Cem, Fairview Cem, and Lena Valley Cem. These burial grounds serve as quiet landmarks of the area's long-established farming communities. The road system, marked by names like Twp Hwy 85 and Road 60, illustrates the modern connectivity of this Kansas prairie land, while natural features like N Big Cr and Tate Br Cr remain largely unchanged from earlier eras.
