About this map

The borderlands between Sumner and Grant counties define this prairie landscape, where the state line between Kansas and Oklahoma cuts across a complex network of north-flowing drainage. The area is characterized by the winding path of Bluff Creek and its various tributaries, including Sullivan Branch and Spring Creek. This agricultural region is meticulously divided by a regular grid of section-line roads, such as N3060 Road and E0040 Road, which facilitate travel through the expansive townships. Local heritage is preserved at two distinct burial grounds: Spring Creek Cemetery, located near the creek of the same name, and Williams Cemetery further south. These sites, along with the patterns of Deer Creek and Dry Creek, offer a detailed view of the rural geography in the early twenty-first century.
