About this map

Washington serves as the focal point of this North Central Kansas survey, centered around the County Court House and a grid of residential streets including W College St and Prospect Blvd. The surrounding landscape is defined by the winding paths of Mill Creek and Camp Cr, which carve through the agricultural sections. The drainage patterns of Ash Cr and Plum Cr influence the placement of rural roads like 17th Rd and Quivira Rd, reflecting the long-established Public Land Survey System divisions.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped in detail, including Washington Cem and the smaller Brethern Merkey Cem just east of town. Further out, the Mount Pleasant Cem and Emmons Cem provide valuable markers for local family history research. A notable natural feature, Mormon Spring, appears south of the city center, adding a specific point of interest to the rolling terrain between the various creek branches.
