1978 Map of Herndon NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Elk, Ludell, and Herndon townships meet in this corner of Northwest Kansas, where the state border aligns with the Nebraska Kansas line. The landscape is defined by the drainage of the South Fork Driftwood Creek and Beaver Cr, supporting a rural economy of agriculture and energy extraction. A developed Oil Field with numerous Oil Wells is connected by a branching Pipeline network across the upland draws. Traces of early community life are centered around the Trinity Ch and the settlement at Timm. Family history and genealogy researchers may find interest in the isolated burial markers noted as Grave and Graves, along with several small-scale industrial sites like the Sandpit near the southern boundary.
