2015 Map of Zurich

About this map

Zurich sits at the intersection of Plainville Ave and Webster Lake Rd in a landscape defined by the rhythmic grid of township and section lines. This 2015 survey of Rooks County shows the small settlement near the Zurich Cem, reflecting the steady continuity of a High Plains farming community. The terrain is dissected by the meandering course of Sand Cr as it flows southeast toward the southern boundary. The inclusion of the Rooks Co Ellis Co line and roads like N Hampton-Fairview Township Rd provide clear points of reference for genealogists tracing family land holdings across several townships. The map documents the enduring infrastructure of rural Kansas, from well-maintained county roads to local watercourses.
