2012 Map of Sharon North

About this map

Little Sandy Creek and its tributaries carve a network through the agricultural landscape of northern Barber County, shaping the rural layout of the region. The map reveals a transition in land use, where traditional family burial grounds like Mumford Cemetery and Burgess Cemetery sit in the vicinity of the modern Flat Ridge Wind Farm. This intersection of early pioneer heritage and 21st-century energy infrastructure defines the local geography. Small settlements and rural nodes such as Blackmore, SE Blackmore, and SE Walstead are connected by a rigid grid of country roads, including Cedar Hills Road and Sandplum Road. At the southern edge, Saint Boniface Cemetery serves as a landmark near the community of Sharon, reflecting the enduring presence of local parish history within the Kansas prairie.
