1959 Map of Half Mound

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Coal Creek and Walnut Creek carve through the agricultural landscape of northern Kansas, defining the rural character of the area near the Atchison Co Jefferson Co border. The settlement of Half Mound serves as a local landmark in this prairie region, which is marked by a network of small family cemeteries and country institutions. Genealogists and local historians can find documented sites such as Pleasant Grove Cem, Earnst Cem, and Neill Cem, alongside the Nichols Sch and Coal Creek Ch. The southern portion of the map shows the transition into the Perry State Game Management Area, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line cuts across the southern townships of Delaware and Norton, reflecting the importance of rail transport to the local farm economy during the late 1950s.
