About this map

Wichita Prairies terrain dominates this 2018 survey of the southern Kansas agricultural landscape, where the Ninnescah River meanders across the northern sections near Clearwater. The map documents a strictly organized township and range grid, where section lines are defined by local thoroughfares such as N Springdale Rd and N Clearwater Rd. Small rural centers like Millerton serve as points of orientation within this productive corridor at the border of Sedgwick and Sumner counties.

Local historians can trace the placement of early burial grounds that anchored these farming communities, including the Harrington Cem in the north and Greencastle Cem to the southeast. Waterways like Turtle Cr and Silver Cr cut through the section lines, providing drainage for the surrounding fields. This record preserves the modern state of a region defined by its long-standing reliance on prairie soil and a high-density network of county roads.
