2022 Map of Montrose

About this map

Montrose serves as the central hub of this north-central Kansas landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the winding drainage basins of W Marsh Cr and E Marsh Cr. The terrain is defined by a dense network of sectional roads, including Randall Rd and S Ave, which connect remote homesteads to local centers of community and memory. Local genealogy is preserved in several rural burial grounds such as Switzers Gap Cem in the northeast and Pleasant View Cem near the southern border. The map also traces the delicate headwaters of Johns Cr and Spring Cr, illustrating how the upland topography directs water through the plains. This survey provides a modern view of the enduring land divisions established by the Public Land Survey System, marked here by the boundaries of t2s r7w and neighboring townships.
