1966 Map of Edmond

About this map

Central State University anchors the growing community of Edmond in this mid-1960s survey, revised in the mid-1970s to reflect suburban expansion. The landscape transitions from the urban core at Main St and 9th St to the surrounding rural townships of Edmond Twp and Lincoln Twp. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad runs north through the small settlements of Waterloo and Seward, passing the Church of the Nazarene and numerous family-named burial grounds like Waterloo Cem and Pleasant Hill Cem. The era's economic base is clearly visible through extensive Oil Fields and Gas Fields dotting the northern countryside, while local infrastructure includes a Compressor Station and the Armory. Natural drainage is provided by Coffee Creek and Deep Fork, which cross a terrain increasingly marked by residential development and local education sites like School No 12 and Clegern Sch.
