2018 Map of Soldier Creek SW

About this map

Soldier Creek and its southern branches define the rolling topography of this rural Jackson County landscape, where a dense network of sectional roads connects long-standing local landmarks. The map documents several significant community sites, including the Danceground Cem and Little Cross Creek Cem, alongside the Delia Cem and Adrian Cem. These burial grounds serve as vital points of reference for genealogical research in this part of Kansas. The terrain is deeply etched by a complex drainage system featuring Sullivan Cr, Illinois Cr, and Salt Cr, which have shaped the agricultural layout of the region. A distinctive modern addition to the landscape is the Get Away Runway, located in the western portion of the quadrangle. The map captures the persistent grid of rural infrastructure, from 178 RD in the north to 118th RD at the southern boundary, reflecting the enduring township and range organization of the prairie.
