1970 Map of Chase NE

About this map

Frederick Oil Field defines the industrial character of northern Rice County in this 1970 study, where clusters of Oil Wells are scattered across the section lines of Eureka and Victoria townships. The landscape is a grid of agricultural fields and energy extraction, bisected by the meandering paths of Plum Creek, Lost Creek, and the larger Cow Creek. Local community life is anchored by rural landmarks like Sunny Four Sch and the Ebenezer Ch in the southern portion of the quadrangle. These small institutions, along with a marked Cem near the creek, reflect the enduring social fabric of the plains during a period of steady petroleum production. The presence of a Substation and a network of section roads highlights the infrastructure supporting both the farms and the oil patches that shaped the local economy in the late twentieth century.
