1979 Map of Hoxie

About this map

Hoxie serves as the focal point of this Sheridan County landscape, situated where the Union Pacific railroad tracks parallel Sand Creek through the Logan Valley. The town's grid is flanked by Municipal Field to the north and a local Golf Course to the west, reflecting a established mid-century community hub. Beyond the residential center, the geography transitions into a productive resource area characterized by the South Fork Solomon River and numerous industrial markings. Evidence of the local economy is scattered throughout the township boundaries of Kenneth and Springbrook, including an extensive Oil Field, a Silica Pit, and several sandpits. Genealogists will find the locations of Hoxie Cem and St Francis Cem clearly marked, providing precise locations for historical research in this part of Kansas during the late 1970s.
