2018 Map of West Mineral
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
West Mineral and the neighboring settlements of Monmouth and Carona anchor this portion of the Kansas coal region. The landscape is heavily defined by its industrial legacy, featuring numerous unnamed surface impoundments and modified terrain, including the prominent Bell Mound. A network of section-line roads, such as NW Coal Valley Rd and NW Coalfield Rd, crisscrosses the township lines between t31s r22e and t32s r23e. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the landscape, from Monmouth Cem in the north to Borland Cem and Star Cem further south. The drainage patterns of Lightning Creek and its tributaries, including Stink Br and Plum Cr, navigate around these altered landforms, reflecting the intersection of natural hydrology and intensive human activity along the boundary of Crawford and Cherokee Counties.
