1966 Map of Hanover West

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across this Kansas landscape, a visible remnant of 19th-century land divisions that predates the rectilinear township grid. The Little Blue River and Mill Creek define the local topography, their winding courses punctuated by numerous Sandpits that indicate the area's geological utility. The transportation network is anchored by the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern railroads, which served the agricultural settlements of Hanover and Hollenberg. Genealogists may find interest in the scattered markers of early community life, such as the Prall Cem and the Evangelical Ch near the Nebraska border. The map also documents mid-20th-century infrastructure, including the County Warren Airport and a network of pipelines crossing the townships of Franklin, Independence, and Charleston.
