1969 Map of Belva

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Belva and Belva Junction anchor this 1969 topographic study of the Major County landscape, where the abandoned Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Grade still traces the northern boundary. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Cuddy Creek, Main Creek, and Ewers Creek, which cut through the high plains. This era of land use is characterized by an emerging energy economy, with numerous Oil Wells, Gas Wells, and scattered Drill Holes appearing across the hillsides. Natural landmarks like Bat Cave and a simple Cave provide contrast to the industrial features such as a local Gravel Pit and an electrical Substation. The map also captures the shared border of Woodward Co and Major Co, marking a transition in local jurisdiction during the late 1960s.
