About this map

Matfield Green sits at a critical junction of prairie waterways, centered along the South Fork Cottonwood River in the heart of Chase County. This area is characterized by a dense network of drainage systems, with named tributaries like Steak Bake Cr and Nickel Cr carving into the upland terrain. The map documents the persistent agricultural and transportation footprint in this part of the Flint Hills, where local life follows the path of Reed St and Rogler St.

Family researchers will find the Matfield Green Cem located south of the main settlement, providing a fixed point for local genealogy. The landscape is interconnected by rural routes such as Little Cedar Creek Rd and Open Range Rd, which traverse the valleys formed by Mercer Cr and Crocker Cr. The layout of these roads and the surrounding drainage patterns illustrate how the physical geography dictated the development of this Kansas ranching community.
