2010 Map of McCune

About this map

McCune serves as the primary grid-pattern settlement in this southeastern Kansas landscape, which is defined by a dense network of sectional roads and meandering watercourses. The drainage of Lightning Creek and Litup Creek flows generally southward, eventually nearing the Neosho River which cuts across the southwestern corner of the quadrangle near Montana. This rural area preserves several burial sites of interest to genealogists, including Mc Cune Cemetery north of the town center and Harley Cemetery to the south. Small clusters of development at Strauss and Sherman illustrate the historic distribution of tiny agricultural hubs across Crawford County. The proximity of Sherman Cemetery to its namesake settlement and the isolated Mitchell Cemetery near the river highlight the long-standing community foundations in this corner of the state.
