Townships organize a lot of rural life near Englewood, from road upkeep to how land is described, and a Clark County township map shows their lines. This guide covers the free Clark County, KS options and how to read them.
Civil townships vs. survey townships
The named townships on a county map are civil townships, and a parcel near Englewood belongs to exactly one of them. The survey township cited in deeds near Englewood comes from the Public Land Survey System, in which each township is about 36 square miles; each holds 36 sections, so a farm near Sitka may span two.
Step one: the free Clark County viewer
The county's own public map is the ORKA parcel viewer, built on a parcel platform shared by many Kansas counties, and it opens without an account for parcels in Englewood and the rest of the county. Pick Clark County on the ORKA start page, then search an address in Englewood or click a tract outside town. For a backup route to the map covering Ashland, our Clark County directory entry keeps the link current.
Using the Clark County parcel viewer as a Clark County township map
On the ORKA parcel viewer, the parcel record for a tract close to Englewood most frequently lists the township, and many viewers draw township lines as a layer. Some Clark County viewers include a PLSS layer that labels sections, which helps when a deed near Minneola cites T and R numbers.
How the survey grid is numbered
Near Ashland, section 1 sits in the northeast corner of a fresh survey township, and the numbering ends at 36 in the southeast corner. Quarter-quarter descriptions in Clark County read backward: locate the southwest quarter, then its northeast quarter, on the Clark County grid. Correction lines and irregular sections exist, so a section near Minneola may not be exactly 640 acres.
Deeds, districts and roads
Older deeds near Minneola may name a township differently than today's Clark County records, so compare the legal description too. For property tax questions, the township shown on the county record for a parcel near Minneola is the one that counts.
The Clark County economy in brief
Clark County's 2022 business count was 61 establishments, with other services, retail trade, and health care and social assistance the largest groups.
