1972 Map of Lewis
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The Arkansas River corridor defines this portion of Edwards County, where the agricultural landscape meets the vital transportation artery of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The settlement of Lewis serves as a primary hub for the region, complete with a central Park and proximity to the Fox Landing Strip, reflecting the integration of traditional rail and emerging small-scale aviation. To the northwest, the small community of Nettleton sits along the rail line near the winding path of Coon Creek. The map documents a terrain shaped by land use, showing several Gravel Pits and a substantial Feed Lot near the southern boundary, which illustrate the industrial and ranching practices prevalent in this section of central Kansas during the early 1970s.
