2009 Map of Peoria

About this map

The Marais des Cygnes River meanders across this rural Franklin County landscape, shaping the geography near the settlements of Peoria and Imes. This 2009 survey reflects a predominantly agricultural region defined by a regular grid of section roads including Nebraska Rd, Oregon Rd, and Texas Rd. The waterway system is particularly dense here, with Ottawa Creek and Middle Creek feeding into the main river valley, while Hickory Creek and West Branch Mosquito Creek drain the eastern reaches. Local history is anchored by the Peoria Cemetery and Fouts Cemetery, providing critical landmarks for genealogical research in this part of Kansas. Transportation is anchored by State Hwy 68 at the northern boundary, connecting these small communities to the wider region.
