About this map

Wonsevu is the primary settlement on this Chase County landscape, situated where the drainages of Hills Cr and Middle Cr converge. The topography is defined by the intricate winding of numerous waterways, including Coon Cr and Cedar Cr, which feed into the Cottonwood River in the northwestern corner of the quadrangle. This drainage pattern dictates the rural road network, where routes like Bluestem Rd and Clover Rd follow the high ground between creek valleys.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by several legacy sites, including the Wonsevu Cem just west of the main settlement. Further north, Griffith Cem and Cedar Point Cem serve as markers of early community clusters near the border of Marion Co and Chase Co. The survey highlights a persistent agrarian structure, with the section lines of the Public Land Survey System clearly demarcated across the drainage basins of Turkey Cr and Brush Cr.
