1960 Map of Heizer

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Walnut Creek and its serpentine meanders dominate this Central Kansas landscape, reflecting the agricultural and industrial character of the region in the mid-20th century. The settlement of Heizer serves as a local hub along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, while the Missouri Pacific line skirts the northern reaches. This 1960 survey captures the rural infrastructure of Walnut and Eureka townships, documenting several Oil Wells that signify the area's energy development alongside established family farms. Local history is anchored by essential community landmarks including Walnut Ridge Sch and Pleasant View Sch, which appear near generational resting places like Patterson Cem and Everett Cem. The detailed topography shows the transition between the fertile creek bottoms and the higher plains, evidenced by Dry Walnut Creek and Book Creek.
