1991 Map of Stilwell

About this map

Stilwell and the surrounding townships of Oxford and Aubry anchor this mid-1990s view of southern Johnson County as suburban expansion begins to blend with established farming communities. The survey detail highlights several distinct nodes of settlement including Morse, Stanley, and Aubry, alongside the eastern fringes of Olathe and Overland Park. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the Blue River and its many tributaries, such as Tomahawk Creek and Wolf Creek, which create the undulating terrain typical of this part of Kansas. Local heritage is preserved in landmarks like the Pleasant Valley Cem, while the industrial footprint of the era is represented by a Quarry and a local Pit. The map captures a specific transition period when rural road networks were increasingly serving growing residential corridors near Leawood and Redel.
