1960 Map of Hickok SE

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The boundary between Grant Co and Haskell Co divides this 1960 landscape, where the expansion of the Hugoton natural gas field is the primary driver of human activity. The survey reveals a grid of development defined by countless Gas Wells that punctuate the terrain alongside a network of section roads. While industrial in character, the map preserves older layers of the social geography, specifically the four named townships: Sherman, Eubank, Dudley, and Sullivan. Genealogical interest is anchored by the presence of the Canaan Cem, providing a fixed point of local history amidst the shifting energy infrastructure. A solitary Radio Tower stands as a prominent landmark in the southern half of the quadrangle, reflecting mid-century communication needs in this part of western Kansas.
