2009 Map of Wayne

About this map

Wayne and Talmo anchor this agricultural landscape in Republic County, defined by a network of rural section roads and the meandering drainage of Salt Creek. The map reveals a high density of burial grounds for a rural township, including Frontier Cemetery in the north and Zion Cemetery to the south, which serve as critical markers for family history researchers and genealogists tracing early prairie pioneers. The terrain is shaped by several watercourses like Turkey Creek and Coal Creek, which influence the local road grid, as seen in the alignment of Co RD 21 and Republic RD. Near the southern border, the small settlement of Hollis sits adjacent to Hollis Cemetery, reflecting the classic Kansas pattern of small-town centers established alongside quiet creek bottoms like Little Upton Creek.
