2012 Map of Sainte Theresa Church

About this map

Saint Theresa Church stands as a spiritual and social anchor in this sparsely populated section of western Kansas. The landscape is defined by the rigid precision of the Public Land Survey System, with an extensive network of section-line roads such as CO Road G and CO Road N carving the terrain into a vast grid of agricultural parcels. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring nature of early settlements through its cemetery records. Both the Saint Theresa Cem, located adjacent to the church, and the more isolated Pearl Cem provide essential data for genealogists tracing family histories in Greeley County. The presence of named thoroughfares like Parks Rd and 4 Mile Rd suggests the local importance of these routes in a region where the vastness of the High Plains meets the organized efforts of rural development.
