1967 Map of Cairo

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The South Fork Ninnescah River meanders across this Central Kansas landscape, anchoring a region defined by agriculture, resource extraction, and early rail lines. In the late 1960s, the small community of Cairo stands alongside the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, supported by the nearby Cairo Cem and a local Fish Hatchery. The map reveals a transition from traditional farming to industrial energy production, evidenced by the Barnes Southwest Oil Field and scattered Gas Wells and Oil Wells. To the north, the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad cuts through the township of Haynesville, following the path of Silver Creek. Small settlements like Waldeck and landmarks like the Roadside Park reflect the sparse but deliberate development of Pratt County during this era of mid-century growth.
