1955 Map of Clinton

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Wakarusa River and its major tributaries, Deer Creek and Rock Creek, dominate this Douglas County landscape during a period of significant hydrological change. This edition reflects the creation of Clinton Lake, a massive reservoir that altered the local topography and necessitated the development of extensive recreation areas such as Clinton State Park and the Woodridge Public Use Area. Despite these modern updates, the map preserves the older rural infrastructure of the mid-20th century. Researchers can locate several historical educational centers, including Deer Creek Sch and Belvoir Sch, along with the small communities of Stull and Clinton. The northern edge is defined by the route of the Kansas Turnpike, showing the intersection of vital transport links and the evolving river valley economy.
