About this map

Winfield serves as the primary regional anchor in this section of Cowley County, where the transition from urban outskirts to agricultural prairie is clearly defined. The city's eastern edge is marked by notable institutional and recreational sites, including the Kansas Veterans Cem at Winfield and the nearby Union Cem. To the north, the landscape is shaped by the expansive waters of Timber Creek Lake, which collects the flows of Timber Cr and Dutch Cr.

Smaller rural hubs like Floral and the eponymous New Salem are linked by a precise grid of county roads, such as 82nd Rd and 122nd Rd. The terrain is characterized by the meandering drainages of Cedar Cr and W Badger Cr, which carve through the plains. Local aviation history is represented by Davis Field, situated south of the main Winfield settlement. This modern survey documents the contemporary arrangement of historic townships, including portions of T31S R4E and T31S R5E.
