2018 Map of Raymond

About this map

The Arkansas River carves a winding path across the southern portion of this landscape, anchoring the small community of Raymond. This 2018 survey reveals a classic rural Kansas grid, where the borders of Barton, Rice, and Stafford counties meet. The settlement of Silica sits in the northern half of the map, connected to the surrounding townships by a network of sectional roads like Ave M and Ave L. Local history and genealogy are preserved in the locations of Hilltop Cem and Immanuel Cem, while the local Po in Raymond serves as a central point for the town. The terrain is defined by low-lying drainages including Spring Cr, which feeds toward the river, reflecting the agricultural and hydrological character of the region near the turn of the 21st century.
