About this map

The Republican River winds across the northern landscape of this North Central Kansas region, defining a fertile valley along the boundary between Jewell and Republic Counties. Near the northern border, the small settlement of Warwick sits close to the riverbanks and the nearby waters of Forsha Cr. The area is characterized by an extensive network of county roads, such as Co RD 1 and Co RD 2, which trace the section lines of the Public Land Survey System through townships T1S and T2S. Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the rural burial grounds scattered across the plains, including Rose Mound Cem in the east, Fairview Cem near Bean Cr, and White Rock Cem situated along the southern reaches of White Rock Cr. Several smaller waterways, including Spring Cr and Bean Cr, carve distinct drainage patterns through the agricultural terrain, illustrating the hydrologic connection to the larger river system.
