2015 Map of Westfall

About this map

Westfall and the surrounding Lincoln County agricultural lands are defined by a network of creeks and prairie drainages. The landscape is carved by Elkhorn Creek and its tributaries, including West Elkhorn Creek and East Elkhorn Creek, which wind through the northern sections of the map. These waterways shaped the early layout of the region's rural settlements, such as Barton and Edalgo, which sit along the established road grid. For those researching local family history, several burial grounds are preserved on this sheet, including the Saint Pauls Lutheran Cemetery, Washam Cemetery, and Hammer Cemetery. The map reflects a modern view of a classic Kansas township structure, where the intersection of named section roads like East Iron Drive and Fox Drive connect dispersed farmsteads and small communities to the broader drainage of Owl Creek and Brush Creek.
