1972 Map of Allen SE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Lyon County State Lake forms a central landmark in this early 1970s survey of eastern Kansas, surrounded by the townships of Reading, Ivy, Fremont, and Waterloo. The landscape is defined by its drainage network, particularly One Hundred and Forty Mile Creek and Duck Creek, which carve through the prairie terrain. Significant historical markers are preserved here, including the Old Treaty Boundary and family-named burial grounds like Ivy Cem and Philips Cem. Modern infrastructure intersects these older lines, with the Kansas Toll Road Turnpike cutting diagonally across the northwestern corner and the A T & S F railroad tracking through the southern reaches. This document captures the transition between rural agricultural history and mid-century transportation development, locating specific structures like a Radio Tower and numerous small creek crossings.
