About this map

The agrarian landscape of Smith County is defined by a rhythmic pattern of section-line roads and the branching drainage of several prairie creeks. Small, localized landmarks provide critical grounding for genealogists, particularly the isolated burial grounds that punctuate the plains. Twelvemile Cem sits in the southeast corner near the headwaters of the E Br Twelvemile Cr, while Crystal Plains Cem and Bell Cem serve the central and southern reaches of the township. These cemeteries, alongside Custer Cem in the north, represent the enduring focal points of the local community. The terrain is shaped by the subtle erosion of W Oak Cr and Monkey Run, which cut through the high ground. A network of rural routes, including Co RD 1060 and 250 RD, maintains the geometric grid typical of Kansas farm country.
