2010 Map of Ulysses NW

About this map

Shockey Cemetery stands as a primary landmark in this section of Sherman Township, providing a genealogical anchor for researchers of this western Kansas landscape. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Bear Creek, which is joined from the west by Wolf Creek. This 2010 survey illustrates a highly structured grid of section roads, including W Rd 1 and Co Rd 8 W, which carve the prairie into precise agricultural blocks. A break in the traditional naming convention appears with Easy St, a short road segment near the center of the quadrangle. The map is a testament to the modern rural layout of Grant County, where the intersection of natural drainage and artificial boundaries dictates the movement across the High Plains.
