1966 Map of Kincaid

About this map

Kincaid and Lone Elm anchor this mid-1960s survey of eastern Kansas, a landscape shaped by the Missouri - Kansas - Texas Railroad and several historic burial grounds. The map reveals the community's rural foundation through features like Fairview Chapel and family-linked landmarks such as Mt Zion Cem and Lone Elm Cem. An abandoned Old Railroad Grade north of Kincaid suggests shifting transportation patterns, while the industrial character of the southern portion is marked by Mildred Lake and the small settlement of Mildred. The terrain is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Deer Creek and the North Fork Little Osage River, which carve through the townships of North Rich and Lone Elm. Local industry is evidenced by scattered quarries and Oil Wells, providing a detailed look at the region's resource-based economy during this era.
