2022 Map of Ransom SW

About this map

Ness County's open agricultural plains are defined by the intermittent drainage patterns of the western Kansas prairie. These ephemeral watercourses, including Bazine Dry Cr and Wild Horse Cr, carve subtle draws through the landscape, dictating the placement of rural section roads and homesteads. The map illustrates a strictly ordered grid system, where long-standing routes like Co RD 533 and 180 RD provide the primary framework for local travel between the expansive townships of t17s r24w and t16s r23w. For local historians and genealogists, the preservation of smaller landmarks is key, notably the Dagenett Cem and North Star Cem. These sites serve as enduring anchors for family research in a territory where the natural landscape remains largely dominated by drainage basins like Long Br and Forrester Cr.
