1978 Map of Edmond NW

About this map

Prairie Gem Cem sits near the heart of this Norton County landscape, where the agricultural plains of western Kansas are etched by the winding courses of East Elk Creek and Sand Creek. The map documents a rural transition during the late 1970s, showing the varied land use between townships such as Leota and Highland. Local economic activity is visible through scattered resource extraction sites, including an Oil Field in the north and various Sandpits and Gravel Pits concentrated near the watercourses. The small community hubs of Orange and Modell serve as primary landmarks for the surrounding homesteads and farms, while the Hardman site provides a specific point of reference for local family history and geographic orientation.
