1972 Map of Allen SW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across this Lyon County landscape, serving as a silent reminder of former land divisions in central Kansas. This 1970s survey captures a transition in the rural environment, where traditional agricultural boundaries in Agnes City, Americus, and Fremont meet the modern infrastructure of the Kansas Toll Road Turnpike. Waterways such as Allen Creek, Stillman Creek, and Duck Creek dictate the drainage of the terrain, while several localized cemeteries provide significant genealogical markers for the area. Researchers will find the Old Indian Treaty Boundary Township Cem, Frost Cem, and Rosean Cem clearly identified, anchoring family histories to specific sections of the prairie. The map also records the path of a major Pipeline cutting through the western sections, illustrating the utility corridors that began to define the mid-century rural landscape.
