2022 Map of Wilson NE

About this map

The Saline River cuts through the northern reaches of this Lincoln County landscape, defining a terrain shaped by winding tributaries and a strict section-line road grid. The presence of Emanuel Cem and Voss Cem provides critical anchors for genealogists and local historians, marking the established rural community centers in this portion of Kansas. The hydrology is dominated by a series of south-flowing drainages including Bullfoot Cr, Cow Cr, and Buffalo Cr, which carve through the plains to create a complex network of draws and ridges. Transportation follows a regular pattern of named routes like Rock Island Rd and N 120th Rd, reflecting the enduring Public Land Survey System layout. This 2022 survey offers a precise look at how contemporary land use and ancient watercourses intersect in the Great Plains.
