2015 Map of Norton NE

About this map

The quiet rural landscape of Sheley Cem sits at the center of this section of the Kansas plains, serving as a primary landmark for local genealogy in this corner of the state. The terrain is defined by a rhythmic series of coulees and draws that feed into watercourses like Dry Creek and Spring Branch. This 2015 survey illustrates the enduring Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, where the boundaries of t1s r23w, t1s r22w, t2s r23w, and t2s r22w meet. The area is intersected by a strictly organized network of section-line roads, including Road B through Road I and north-south routes like Road E 4, reflecting the agricultural heritage and systematic land division of the High Plains.
