1972 Map of Lewis
USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
The Arkansas River corridor in Edwards County defines this landscape, where the riparian valley transitions into the surrounding townships of Kinsley, Wayne, and North Brown. Central to the region's transport is the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which parallels the river and connects the small settlement of Nettleton to the community of Lewis. This area reflects the agricultural and infrastructural development of the early 1970s, featuring local landmarks such as a large Feed Lot and the Fox Landing Strip. The presence of numerous irrigation wells across the plains illustrates the intensive water management necessary for the region's farming economy. In the town of Lewis, a clearly defined street grid includes a local Park, providing a detailed look at the layout of this Kansas prairie town as it appeared during this era.
