1978 Map of Alton SW

About this map

Round Mound and Mount Ayr define the high ground of this Osborne County landscape, where the drainage of Kill Creek and Medicine Creek carves a complex network of draws and ridges. During the late 1970s, this rural township was defined by its scattered communal landmarks and agricultural infrastructure. The presence of Round Mound Cem and Enterprise Ch suggests the enduring footprint of early settlers in the Victor area. This survey identifies highly localized details for genealogists and land researchers, such as the Kill Creek No 2 school site and the path of a significant Pipeline crossing the southern sections. The map serves as a record of the mid-century rural school system and the sparse, creek-dependent settlement pattern of the Kansas plains.
