2018 Map of Wanette

About this map

The Canadian River meanders across the center of this landscape, marking the political boundary between Pottawatomie and McClain counties. The settlement of Wanette serves as a primary focal point in the northeast, where a grid of local streets like Lucas Ave and Martin Ave meet the surrounding rural roads. To the south, the community of Johnsonville sits near a pair of distinct burial sites, the Old Johnsonville Cem and New Johnsonville Cem, providing significant touchpoints for genealogical research. The terrain is defined by its drainage into the river valley, with Canadian Sandy Creek and Pond Creek carving through the prairie. Further south, the town of Byars anchors the bottom of the map, while the Gallup Ranch Reservoir indicates the importance of water management for local agriculture and the Gallup Ranch operations.
