About this map

The town of Wheaton serves as the primary focal point in this section of Pottawatomie County, where a network of rural section roads divides a landscape defined by significant creek drainages. Several community landmarks provide anchor points for family historians, including Saint Michaels Cem, Wheaton Cem, and Saint Luke's Cem. The drainage patterns are clearly visible through the winding paths of Mill Creek, Rock Creek, and Indian Creek, which carve out local features like Dutch Hollow and the area near Possum Hollow Rd.

A network of thoroughfares, such as Fremont Rd and White Eagle Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads and rural properties. The presence of Fox Cemetery and Saint Luke's Cemetery located far from the main town center reflects the historical distribution of early Kansas settlements and parish communities. This modern survey maps the enduring agricultural layout of the region, preserving the names of local tributaries like Darnells Creek and Coal Creek.
