2009 Map of Plainville SW

About this map

The Saline River cuts through this rural landscape of Ellis County, where the high plains terrain is carved by the drainages of Tomcat Creek and East Spring Creek. The map shows a region defined by its section-line road network, providing a clear view of land divisions and rural infrastructure at the end of the decade. Genealogists will find particular value in the presence of Saint Andrew Cemetery and Hyacinth Cemetery, which serve as quiet markers of the local community's heritage. The road system, including named routes like Buckeye Rd and St John - St Andrew Rd, reflects the steady agricultural and residential organization of the county. This topographical study effectively documents the drainage patterns and precise locations of small rural landmarks in this part of Kansas.
