1962 Map of Warrensburg West

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Blackwater River snakes horizontally across this landscape, dividing the northern uplands of Columbus and Hazel Hill townships from the southern plains. The Missouri Pacific railroad corridor anchors the southern portion of the map, passing through the settlement of Centerview and the western edge of Warrensburg. This 1962 topography, updated with 1980 photogrammetric revisions, provides a clear record of rural Johnson County before modern expansion. Genealogists will find several burial grounds, including the large Sunset Hill Cemetery and smaller family sites like Houx Cem and Dixon Cem. Local infrastructure is marked by Sky Haven Airport and the Sewage Disposal plant near the city limits. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries like Honey Creek, Walnut Creek, and Post Oak Branch, which feed into the river system, shaping the agricultural patterns of the early 1960s.
