About this map

Nickletown Cem and Askren Cem sit within a rural landscape defined by a grid of named roads including Hereford Rd and Indian Rd. This Woodson County landscape is drained by a network of waterways including Turkey Cr, N Owl Cr, and Owl Cr, which meander through open fields and wooded corridors. The southern portion of the area includes the Yates Center Reservoir, a significant water feature that anchors the local topography. This 2012 survey documents the persistent rural character of eastern Kansas, where local history is preserved in small family and community cemeteries. The township road system, with distinctive names like Grouse Rd and Longhorn Rd, provides a precise framework for locating ancestral homesteads and property boundaries from this era.
