2015 Map of Radium

About this map

The Arkansas River meanders across this rural landscape, forming the primary geographic axis for the small communities of Radium and Ray during the mid-2010s. The region is defined by its agricultural grid, where long thoroughfares like Radium Rd and Larned Rd connect scattered farmsteads and rural landmarks. This section of Stafford and Pawnee counties preserves significant genealogical markers in the form of quiet burial grounds, including Pleasant Ridge Cem in the northeast and Fertig Cem situated further south. Hydrological features such as Pickle Cr and Ash Cr feed into the river basin, shaping the local drainage patterns. The map provides a clear record of the section-line road system, including named routes like NW 200th St and 40th Ave, which have dictated the layout of this Kansas prairie for generations.
