1968 Map of Kremlin

About this map

Kremlin serves as the focal point of this Garfield County landscape, situated along the Kansas and Texas Oklahoma railroad corridor. The area's mid-century economic profile is defined by extensive energy extraction and industrial activity, notably within the East Kremlin Gas Field and at the Carbon Plant south of town. Several Oil Wells and Gas Wells dot the terrain, which is drained by Horse Creek and Sand Creek. Cultural landmarks such as the Kremlin Cem and the more northern Valley Center Cem provide valuable points of reference for genealogists. The presence of the Zaloudek Landing Strip alongside the rail line highlights the region's reliance on specialized transportation and infrastructure during the 1960s and 1980s. Fine red dashed lines throughout the survey indicate field and fence lines, offering a glimpse into the agricultural boundaries of the era.
