2015 Map of Moran

About this map

The town of Moran serves as the primary hub of this Allen County landscape, situated at a significant crossroads in southeast Kansas. This 2015 survey reveals an area defined by its agricultural layout, with roads named for distant states like New Hampshire Rd, Nebraska Rd, and Missouri Rd carving a neat grid across the prairie. The drainage patterns here are particularly intricate, as the map captures the divide between the S Fork Little Osage River flowing north and the Marmaton River coursing to the southeast. Local history and genealogy are anchored by Moran Cem and Golden Valley Cem, while the small settlement of Bayard remains visible in the northern reaches. The presence of Ensminger Airport and the small Katy Lake provides additional character to this rural expanse where Elm Cr and Rock Cr cut through the gently undulating terrain.
