1978 Map of Atwood NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Driftwood Oil Field and the surrounding high plains of Rawlins County define this landscape just south of the Nebraska state line in the late 1970s. The area is characterized by a mix of petroleum extraction and rural religious foundations, with numerous Oil Wells and a Drill Hole scattered across the undulating terrain. The drainage patterns of the North Fork Driftwood Creek and South Fork Driftwood Creek carve through the land, framed by the local regions of Burntwood and Beaver. The map is particularly useful for genealogists, as it preserves the locations of several important community sites including St Johns Ch, St Johns Cem, and the Immaculate Conception Cem. These features, alongside the Enterprise Cem, provide a clear picture of the historical settlement patterns in this remote corner of Kansas.
