1964 Map of Lamar

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The agrarian landscape along the boundary of Cloud and Ottawa counties comes into sharp focus through the winding paths of Middle Pipe Creek and East Pipe Creek. This mid-century survey captures a rural Kansas community defined by its township structure, spanning the districts of Meredith, Oakland, Logan, and Sherman. The small settlement of Lamar serves as a local anchor in the south, while the surrounding prairie is dotted with the essential institutions of pioneer genealogy, including Meredith Ch and community burial sites like Fairview Cem and Oakland Union Cem. Educational history is preserved through the locations of the Rocky Hill Sch and South Oakland Sch, reflecting a time when rural schoolhouses still served as the primary social hubs for scattered farmsteads. A private Landing Strip in the northeast suggests the modernization of agricultural life during the early 1960s.
