2012 Map of South of Eminence Cemetery

About this map

The Pawnee River meanders across this rural Finney County landscape, carving a serpentine path through the high plains of western Kansas. This 2012 survey shows an area dominated by agricultural large-lot partitioning, where the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System is occasionally interrupted by the natural course of the water. Family and local history is etched into the landscape through names like Harry Oyler Rd and Linville Rd, which often indicate historical land ownership or early settlement routes. The southern boundary is defined by the Gray Co Line Rd and E Gray Co Line Rd, marking the transition between administrative territories. This map captures the modern connectivity of the region, anchored by the east-west corridor of Highway 156, while preserving the traditional naming conventions of the rural road network, including N Twin Springs Rd and N Clifton Rd.
