2009 Map of Waldeck

About this map

Lehigh anchors the southern edge of this Marion County landscape, situated at the intersection of E Main St and the surrounding grid of section roads. The area is defined by its agrarian structure and a network of waterways including the South Cottonwood River and North Cottonwood River, which meander through the central Kansas plains. A notable local history detail is found in the presence of the Mennonite Cemetery and Lehigh Cemetery, situated north of the main settlement near the headwaters of French Creek. These sites reflect the cultural heritage and early community foundations of the region. Further north, the small community of Waldeck sits along the banks of Perry Creek. The road network preserves historical routes, most notably Chisholm Trail Rd, which runs north-south through the center of the survey area, tracing the legacy of old cattle driving trails.
