1974 Map of Alamota

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor anchors this survey of central Lane County, Kansas. The settlement of Alamota sits along these tracks, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural plains. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the South Fork Walnut Creek and Darr Creek, which reveal the area's geological composition through several Caliche Pits and Gravel Pits concentrated near the watercourses. Local infrastructure is sparse but notable, featuring a Radio Tower and an Oil Well indicating the regional energy and communication network. For genealogists and local historians, a small Cem is located in the southern portion of the quadrangle near Spring Creek, providing a primary point of interest for family history research in this rural high plains environment.
