About this map

The Little Osage River defines the southern reach of this landscape along the boundary between Linn and Bourbon Counties. Central to the area is the small settlement of Mantey, situated where a grid of rural roads meets the prairie drainage systems. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of seasonal and perennial waterways including Lost Creek, Elk Creek, and Mine Creek, which dictate the local topography and placement of infrastructure.

Local family history is anchored by the Colbert Cemetery and Curry Cemetery, which remain as legacy points within the section lines. Modern agricultural land use is evidenced by the Greg Post Farms Airport in the southwest. While the northern portion features a cluster of residential street names like Sugar Lake Drive and Badger Drive, the majority of the map reflects a traditional Kansas section-and-range layout characterized by long arterial routes such as Montgomery and E 500th Road.
