1960 Map of Arrington

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Arrington and Larkinburg serve as the primary hubs in this corner of Northeast Kansas, where the boundaries of Jackson, Atchison, and Jefferson counties converge. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Delaware River, which draws in a network of tributaries including Straight Creek, Elk Creek, and Catamount Creek. This landscape reflects a mid-century rural economy, with a small Landing Field situated just west of Larkinburg and a Gravel Pit located near the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Local history is anchored by several rural settlements and burial grounds such as Larkinburg Cem and Miller Cem. Farther south, the community of Nebo sits along Nebo Creek, while the settlement of South Denison marks the southwestern reaches of the study area, illustrating the dispersed residential patterns typical of the era before significant urbanization changed the local road and rail infrastructure.
